The photo was taken in Cape Girardeau, MO a couple of years ago. This gentlemen was relaxing on a bench near the Mississippi River. He gave me permission to take his photo and I gave him some cash for his trouble. He quickly walked to a nearby tavern after the photo was taken. I did a slight FDR edit and converted to black and white. If that is manipulation, so be it.

Good editing on this - He went to "celebrate" the fact that his photo was taken !! If only he knew that this photo can be seen all over the world.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
I like the HDR, and the conversion, nicely done Tick. Tigz=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
I have placed a garlic necklace around my monitor to protect you from the mod police, Tick. Let me know if they change your gallery or title. But until then, I will look through the garlic protection and enjoy your picture. Happy Easter ~~ John

The 'grittiness' of the treatment gives this picture more impact!..
You captured him in a good pose!...If you take one of me..I won't charge you for it!...lol

It looks great in b/w and your FDR treatment adds to the detail and tones...the 'grittiness' seems most fitting for the subject matter...good work, SOT.

Great shot and nice FDR work Tick - a guy down on his luck and the monetary exchange worked out nicely for both of you!!!!!!!!!!!

FDR? I haven't heard of that, Ron. Or did you mean HDR? Whatever the case, it really enhances the lines, folds, shadows, and contrasts. It's like the charcoal drawings I used to do in my college drawing classes... except it actually looks good.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Oh Boy. I really like this. Something different from the normal approach to photography. the treatment is awesome and brings out the stunning details.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
The FDR/HDR-treatment and converting it to a B&W image has made it to a characterful portrait, Tick.
In spite of his relaxing pose now, I can see clearly that life hasn't been that easy for him up till now.
Good work, Owd Fella!

I like this black and white version. Really captures the eye.

This caught my eye - nice to see you bravely take on an every day scene and with such good results.
[I might have cropped a smidge off the top and bottom, as the brickwork (nice as it is) draws my eye away from the subject.]

Quality not quantity.
So good in so many ways Tick fave and save.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
I like the rework on this! I like the rework you did on this image. I would like to do more people shots, although Alice has given me some pointers, I haven't been able to go out and try much candid photography. Good job and presentation.
