Portrait of a Stranger

through the front window of the bus. 55-200 mm Nikkor

Don,

I really like this and your own style of PP is making this come alive. The only crit is the branch coming out of his head. Perhaps a little cloning is in order?

I agree w/ readingr. Very nice portrait except the angle of that branch is close enough to the angle of his body that he could have been impailed upon it. You have plenty enough of the bus window to work from and the tone is even across it, that it shouldn't be a big deal to clone out that branch. In my opinion, that would take this shot from "pretty good" to exceptional.

This is a good portrait, Don. The posture of the subject and your overall framing has very nice balance and feel. The exposure is right on, and the gritty b&w has a nice street feel to it.
I see what the others are saying about the branch, but it is not an issue for me. You could clone it out or easier yet just add some more blur to it.
This is a good one here.

Thanks for noting the branch. I didn't even think of it. It can be easily fixed.
