hmn. did you mean 1984? and what Lev said about the resemblance. incidentally Nickie and Georgie looked very much alike; their cousin Willie tried to be like them. |

a bit of anachronism between 1910ish mustache (a la Russian Czar Nicholas II) and 1970ish Soviet army hat. But a great photo nonetheless :) |

the forthright bleakness... stunning, but not too much. |

Beautiful portrait. Title hides an interesting story to go with it, and the mustache suggests an earlier year :). Excellent! |

Well, there you go. It was believed back in the 60's that watching too much television gave you square eyes and here is the proof :)
Lovely portrait, great duotones and you have to love that moustache. |

This image has caused me to stop and pay attention. That means it is in my 7-10 voting band. (Voted earlier)
Additionally, it is highly interesting/eclectic meaning it keeps me here long enough to offer a longer comment and a vote of 8 or more.
This is one of my 9s - I like it a lot. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:
1. I like unusual portraits and this qualifies.
2. Excellent fill the frame technique.
3. Superb clarity.
4. Excellent symmetry.
5. Wonderful tones.
Overall, a most excellent portrait. |

Very well done but could be dated even earlier. |

Great vintage processing and the perfect subject for it. |

Definitely looks like an image from yesteryear. Good job at getting that effect. |
