My grandfather always wore a hat. He was real protective of his hats.

I like very much how even the background adds dimension and energy. Usually I think the background is not important and should fade away.
I hope you can get this young man a copy of this photograph.
I often get to take a person's picture by telling them I will send it to them, if they allow me to click!
Honestly Alfredo, I think this is a masterpiece. a millimeter perfect crop, too, to my eyes
I'd like to also see it in black and white.
