Young Man

Beautiful shot. No notes from me, keep up the great work.
 
Nice B&W picture :)
 
Way to be resourceful!

The image speaks for itself.

Well done, thank you for sharing!

Thanks. It was luck. I was cleaning up along my fence line prior to walk. I live on a golf course so stuff gets caught up on it. Just stuffed it in my coat pocket. Later in walk, tripped over a sprinkler head hole and tumbled down. The two young golfers came over to see if I was ok. I was kind of laying there laughing at myself really. I saved the camera from the fall which was pretty smooth on my part but may have made that fall look worse. Nice young men, I was surprised they came over to help. I was out trying to get a few color shots. Snapped a couple of the one kid and they drove me back home. I was done at that point.
 
This is a "très naturel" pose and for me absolutely the best male portrait I've seen on this forum, since I joined in 2015 :encouragement:
What camera is that in your signature? Do you shoot with it?

It's an Agfa Click ІІ, made my first snapshots with this plastic camera when I was about 9 years old.
I still remember I was fascinated by the yellow filter that could create these beautiful clouds on your photos.
Still have such a camera (the original camera has broken after a few years) but I've never taken any photos with it, maybe it could be fun just to try that once!
In 1967/68, so half-a-century ago, I seriously started with an Asahi Pentax S1a slr-camera, own b&w darkroom etc.
