 Just walking down 6th Ave in Manhattan and this guy called me over to chat about my camera. When I asked him if I could take his pic, his reply was; "You've got one shot".

I liked this a lot and kept forgetting to vote on it. Then finally I got around to it. Really a personable picture. He does have that "come on, give it your best shot" type of smirk on his face.

Great shot with great personality. A little bit on the dark side..have you tried a little bit of dodging on him and his clothing and some burning around him? That would improve the image somewhat.

Great portrait, although I would have preferred the subject to be a little closer to the left hand side of the frame, as it is he seems to be facing out of the photograph a little.

......hope you had your picture taken by this man..... it would be fun to see them side by side. A nice old 4x5 in his hands.

6. It's a great pic but I'd like to see him shifted to the left a little. The store glass is distracting.
