Good portrait of an interesting face, pity for the shoulder in my opinion, I like the B/W tones and the crop, the Rayban signature is funny ;) Bye Max

Andy,
I just purchased the EOS 10D. Can you provide me with any tips for setting my camera to achieve these amazing results? Great picture of Big John. Like the other comments I like the detail, sharpness, lighting and tonal quality.


Andy Simmons   {K:7704} 6/29/2004
Richard, thanks for your comments. For 10D advice, go to www.dpreview.com, register (it's free), and check out the Forums list for the 10D/D60/D30 forum. Here is where 10D owners trade advice and suggestions. You learn a lot there.

Fantastic portrait!

Dear Andy, wonderful image of a strong and mysterious face my friend! one of the comments said it was a pity about the shoulder, well in my opinion I think the shoulder covering his lower jaw makes it even more mysterious and compelling! marvelous work....jon

You had me singing that song with the title. Excellent capture and image.


Richard Thornton   {K:26442} 6/30/2004
Powerful character study, Andy.

Strong portrait ! Lovely tones, how did you obtain these ? Orangefilter, or just desaturation ?


Andy Simmons   {K:7704} 7/3/2004
Thanks for your comment, Peter. I used no filters at all, just desaturated, did very light sharpening, cloned out some funky background, resized for the net. That's it. No cropping at all.

great portrait!!!
regards Andy!!!


Rebecca Raybon   {K:26655} 7/5/2004
Very powerful portrait. Great tones and contrast. I like that he's looking slightly over the shoulder. He has that kind of tough " Clint Eastwood" look.. Very nice. 7+

It?s really great!

fantastic image


Mark Beltran   {K:32612} 8/10/2004
Such an impeccable composition. I first wanted to comment on how it reminded me of the late great Ray Charles. But seeing it full size, he's got his own identity and unique charm.

lighting and composed.
Great image.
Congrats.
(Thanks for your comment)
