a rare attempt at shooting people

[grimmett]

I don't shoot people that often, but when I'm at work I tend to shoot a lot more people than normal. This is one of my favorites of my shots of people. It doesn't hurt that my subject is so photogenic. This was shot with TMax 3200 rated at 6400 and pushed 1 stop.

Thoughts? I like it but maybe I'm just biased.

I like it, the glasses remind of the pictures of Rey Charles

looks exactly like Cuba Gooding Jr. I really like it, very matrix/morphius-ish love the lighting.

Actually, no I haven't. He probably would like to see it. Good idea.

Great shot! I, too, recognized Cuba right away Love the lighting and the grain on this. Show it to him!

Thanks guys. Guess I'm gonna have to give Cuba a peek at this one next time I see him. I really am surprised so many people recognized him.
