Dominick- Welcome back and glad you made it safely.
Marvelous portrait work. The textured wall behind the young man really gives the picture a most wonderful feel. the expression on his face gives me the feeling that he is a caring man. A man that goes out of his way to please and help others. The shine in his eyes show kindness and compassion.
Lighting and clarity are superb. Details and color marvelous.
