Graham,
Interesting shot. This gentleman has a lot of character in his face.
Why did you go for so much sky, and just this fellow's face? I'm
interested to hear your thoughts?

=============================================================
The background was a mess so I set him against the sky. I have been told,
justifiably, that I shoot according to camera club conventions so I have
been breaking a few rules. Prior to this one I didn't care for the results
but I really like this shot. Ever the rebel I have now switched from bottom
left subjects to bottom right subjects I don't know where this rebellion is
going to end, I am now storing my 'Milk of Magnesia' in a hot damp place :-)
