Roy,
this picture is incredible!!! Can you tell me all the details to this pic? f-stop, aperture, lens, shutter speed, film speed, lighting, I wanna know exactly how you got this shot. I love it, I love the closeness of it!! He seems scary yet you can see his sad little eyes. So sharp and clear too. Awesome job!
