OK Your portraits are ALWAYS Top Notch but this guy is perhaps the ALL TIME PERFECT for a PERIOD CAPTURE. The Hair & Beard The Weathered Face

Great job! I just really need to go to one of these. They have one just about 20 miles from me and I never hear about it til it's over. Have to make more of an effort, I guess. #10222752
