Beautiful and moving portrait, Julian! You really have a way with them, which is interesting considering you caught my attention with your abstract images. His sad, far-away gaze has a powerful effect. I like the lighting, and the composition, with the off-centre subject - even those three bars at top act like a punctuation mark. Wonderful work.

Thank you Chris. His is a very interesting story and I so wish I'd had way more time with him to really craft the image but.... oh well.
Thanks

I absolutely love this image Julian. The expression is moving, the composition wonderful nd the lighting spot on to create such a fitting mood.

The light on that white shirt is a real magnet to the eye - great job,
