The Sun and the Moon: Edited to add last photo
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

That is a fabulous photograph, much more than a headshot, in my opinion. He looks amazing, and you have executed the work, very well. I would have prefered the dark shadow on his chest a little lighter, including more detail, but truthfully, I don't care, it is good for all to see.
Thanks for c&c Ian.
Very nicely done. I see no glaring issues with this shot - just a few esthetics. I would have removed the dark area sticking out from the top of your subject's right ear as it's a bit distracting. Also, I might have brightened his eyes just a bit, as the eyes are everything, especially in a photo like this. Other than that this is a really great shot. Well done!
thank you for c&c Mike.
Fine work. The interplay between the Paisley, the background and the figure in the subjects face is really cool. Opinion: I would leave the eyes as they are.
Awesome photo. However I would lighten the area around the eyes as they tend to get washed away in that dark patch area in the center of your subject's face. But overall I love the photo. Good luck
