So simple, Frank --- and so stunning!

Love everything about this portrait: the blue tones of the b&w, all of the details so well-defined, the mirrored DD effect, the thick black framing that contains the white bg....Brilliant work, my friend, and I expect the judges to agree... A Fave for me.
Take care, and stay warm.
