 This is Ryan, aka Magnumphotography on the Limerick Forest boardwalk, with his huge ol' knapsack, Manfrotto tripod and of course Canon 5D. The pose is his characteristic hunker. For such a tall guy he sure can fold himself up! He had just been shooting a dragonfly nymph on the underside of a railing. We both love nature photography, and he will often vanish into the depths of the Gatineau Park for hours on end.

An excellent portrait! Really does seem to capture who he is, or at least how I see him through your eyes and his photography. Well done!

Not sure I like the crop. Nice shot, though.

Very nice portrait of him, but I kinda expected a little quirky humor from you in this challenge. You know, with that hair of his, Ryan would make a great caveman. Wouldn't you like to be dragged back to his cave? On the other hand, that's my own trademarked schtick.

Would have been a nice "landscape" shot if shot from just above the height of the hand rails but I can't tell anything about this person in the portrait
