Comment by bspurgeon: Great! Love the conversion. Crooked glasses for crooked eyes and a nose. Of course he would want me to smoke!
The beard, IMO, is oversharpened, halos are distracting as the beard is one of the brightest objects in the image. Same about the cig, as I believe your intended subject is the face. Overall, I love this image, one of my favorites thus far. 7
Comment by figaro: Really interesting choice of subject and a good, edgy composition. Black and white conversion is a little on the flat side and could do with some more contrast.
