Hello Elaine,
It's a wonderful portrait. The man is well placed to the side and looks like quite a character. He found a smart place to story his precious belongings. There is an attractive, slightly blurred background, and the man is razor sharp.
Regards,
Gert

Hello Elaine, a wonderful portrait with the sharp focus on the man, and the beach in soft focus.
The light is lovely, despite wearing his hat, the details of his face are still so clear.
An excellent composition.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hallo Elaine,
Een heel mooi portret van deze oudere visser met zijn grote hoed.
Aantrekkelijke compositie. De man werd goed geplaatst terwijl we ook een beeld hebben van de kustlijn.
Vele groeten, Paul

Hello Elaine

Lovely bl/w conversion with great sharpness on the man's face who seems quite at ease posing for you. Good light, good take. I like the people in the bg too.

Mooi!

Excellent mono, a characterful face with great lighting, splendid detail and stunning expression. It's so real and so alive for sure the image has to be a storyteller. A novel capture Elaine

Hello Elaine,

I'm so glad that you pointed out the tobacco and cigarette; it is so amusing and I would probably not have noticed!
It's a wonderfully sharp photograph of the old gentleman, clearly interested in you and your camera.
I wonder, did you blur the b/g in PS or is this just as taken. I see nothing wrong with doing PP work, it's just that I am interested.

Have a good day,
Bev :-)
