 This was taken in the town of Vinales in Cuba. This is a small town in the countryside with lots of tobacco farms. We watched them rolling the cigars by hand at one of the farms. Fascinating. This chap was very happy to have his picture taken

What an incredibly strong face - for the ages. Nice to see the D800 results. Nice work Sarah.

What an outstanding profile shot. I wish it were a tad sharper but great shot overall.

I'd have perhaps liked a little more sharpening on the eyes, which to me somehow look less sharp than the rest of the face, but otherwise very nice capture and processing.
