What a wonderful portrait! Fantastic lighting and I love his heartfelt expression. Saw this on EFP...congrats. Lynn #4356434

I saw this on Editors First Picks, too, Todd. The lighting is terrific--it's as if you caught him in the barn with the only light that which came in through a slightly open door or a crack between the siding boards. And Lynn is right--his expression is wonderful and we can see he loves his animals. #4361796

Thanks, all!

I hadn't realized this made it into Editor's First Picks. Thanks for the info. BTW, This was an assignment photo for an online course, hence the strange description under the title.

A wonderful image, Todd. Your choice of B&W works very well and the selective focus is a fine finishing touch.
