   You’ve gotten so much better over the years at taking pictures of people who are looking directly into the camera.

   Usually when they’re doing that it’s because they’re pissed off. He has interesting features, don’t you think?

   This is brilliant. Much as I love all your photos, I love your people photos the most. The curves and angles of the window so perfecly shadow the curves and angles of the subject’s face and hair.

   Thank you XUP! I’m glad you picked up on that, about the window mirroring the man’s eyes and face.

   It’s really too bad the subject is unlikely to see this portrait. He would no doubt think it terrific – it’s art *and* he looks exactly the way I think guys his age want to look (if that makes any sense at all).
