Although he gave me permission to take his photograph, this man definitely is the strong and silent type. I tried to "chat him up" but he wasn't having any part of it. He probably has many strong life stories to relate but I had to respect his silence.

ReplyDeleteHe seems deep in thought and so good of him to let you capture this excellent portrait. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWith that white beard he is a perfect subject for monochrome.
ReplyDeleteVery nice portrait. He's someone who's figured out his limits. I hope he sees and appreciates this photo.
ReplyDeleteMore of my silent subjects are shy. I wonder what he thought when you asked and when he said OK.
