    I love the muted colors- green, gray, and blue with the hint of copper in the vertical trim and the gold of the horizontal bar on the door.

    One of the most amusing images I have seen. A relative of mine often adapts a pose similar to this as if, after years of wearing them, he discovers that his spectacles are vari-focal after all.
    But would I have ever thought of photographing him; never. And more's the pity.
    Well done Tuna. As alert and observant as ever. You help me to open my eyes.

    That is awesome. One look at that and the void breathes much heavier on my heart.

    Vunderful.

    Upon more careful consideration, he doesn't look as much like J.K. Simmons as previously thought.

    Love the pose, checking his fly? I wish I was this observant.

    I've been away from the board for a while. Back in the day, I only remember Tuna images as black and white. This one has a subtle humor with a Normal Rockwell feel. Thanks for sharing.

    I have a photo on the critique board, as well, should you care to comment.
