One big dude! He seems an old hand in front of the camera. MMaaayybbeeee his hand could be in frame but who cares, its the soul im worried about. And you captured it! #35291Eluana Okilo May 26, 2019
thanks! I know what u mean about the hand. but I had to make some very fast choices in terms of framing, getting the timing just right, etc. I thot about putting his entire arm and hand in, (i.e. zooming out a bit) but I thot it would make more of an impact with the arm dimensions spilling out of the frame. #97890Judy M.

Big guy alright, but you know what they say, big guy - big heart, but that expression, is he saying 'hello' or 'dare ya'? #97893Judith G. Secco May 26, 2019
