Great portrait, makes for a strong statement, and it should be disturbing. Hopefully this will make and many others reconsider the wiseness of their habit.
Doesn't disturb me at all - I find it real, honest, and he strikes me as a man with a very strong will and solid character. I think it's a very fitting portrait of him. Nice use of Les' overlay, too.
pointandshoot gets it the way I see it too - both strength and frailty, fighting for supremacy here. Ages spots are the original, pre-Photoshop textures. ;)
oh yes, you're right, his face does not need any additional textures

This is just way more powerful than the BW. Probably too powerful for most. Would not have detected overlay, and you have me wondering what effect it has on the lighting and contrast, because these and the tones bring him off the monitor and into my living space.
