| Wow, Sandy! can't wait to see the photos from your faces collection. I came upon this shot while browsing during the voting phase. I remembered it as it had a lasting impression the first time I saw it but couldn't remember on hand who the photog was, it took some time but it came to me :) |

| Really nice portrait with a great model, he has so much character in his face, it got a well deserved nine from me! Now if you can only get a model like that on top of a mountain peak in Colorado then you would really have something....:P |

| Oh Sandy! Are you going to do a book on a collection of faces? If so, I must have it lol. That would be an amazing thing to have. Where is your story for this gentleman? I love coming to read those. (I feel like I have seen a similar photo before - maybe the story is there?) Beautiful capture of his eyes. They totally speak for the picture. Congrats on a great job! |

| I like the picture! I am not sure what does "The old soul" mean? It feels degrading to the person and the soul to call it that, I do not think a soul ages, 10 for the photo anyway and good luck |

| A thoroughly impressive black and white photograph of a gentleman who looks as though he has many stories to tell. The photo has been taken with clear empathy and respect for the subject, and technically it is very impressive. The tonal range is more akin to that achieved in a wet darkroom. |
