Description
I posted the original Here
Clive was well spoken and intelligent, and told me he and his wife bought a dream cottage on the South west coast of Scotland. It is minutes from the beach, and he drives home once a fortnight. It was about 1/10th of the price a similar property would be in Dorset, hence the sacrifice.
(I didn't get round to asking why he couldn't find work there.)

Excellent detailed shot!
Splendid pic.
Love the mono. Did you see the antiques prog on BBC1 today, with all those perfume bottles????
This is a superb portrait pic in either mono or colour. I prefer the mono.
I agree with Jeff it works perfectly in Mono and is a wonderful portrait :)
Sounds a nice place and he looks very weather worn.
He has so beautiful eyes. !!!
Outstanding portrait, the mono brings out the best
I'd be hard pressed to say which version I like better. A terrific portrait!
I really like this version; the mono brings out his personality. And I'm jealous of the cottage in Scotland!
An outstanding no-holds-barred portrait of Clive in mono, Andrea, who does appear to be outside most of the time. I'm now on my way to check out the original.
Viewing both pictures I like this one more. Superb capture Andrtea. God bless.
Although I like the colour version, I knew right away that he has a face that demands a B&W treatment; your treatment is awesome!
Both portraits are excellent but definitely the black and white. It brings out all the character in his face. He looks for all the world like a man who has just come back from a circumnavigation in a small boat.
Fantastic portrait!!!!!!!!!!!!
very clear and impressive portrait! perfect done in b/w
Excellent work here Andrea!
All a life in this portrait.
A fine portrait and character study.
I like the B&W version because it brings out the features of his face.
