July 06, 2008 12:50pm Great coaching for emotional expression here. Love the model's face. A quibble, but I would have positioned that one light a bit higher and avoided the shadow on his lower right face and created a perfect closed loop shadow under his nose. Then use a reflector to bounce a little light from below up into his lower eyes and open up the shadows a bit on the left side of his face. But strong portrait - great B&W tones and great ppsing with that strong bicep forming a frame for his face. I'm gonna steal that idea next time LOL.
