Default my brother in arms...

Not your typical model, but this guy is very special to me and I'm honoured to call him a true friend.

Not the kind of character you would like to meet in a dark alley.
I think you have captured him very nicely.
The B&W and the dark side suits him very well.
I get the impression the behind the "face" there is a very good person.
The tilt is perfect and adds to the composition, in my humble oppinion.

Nice composition. Usually I'm not a big fan of tilted pictures, but I think its working well in this shot, it lends to the mood of the shot! Nicely done.

Not the first time that has been said about him I can assure you! I'm so pleased you looked beyond the 'obvious' too Flavio...the guy has a heart of gold.

the light shining on his face gives him a very steely yet mellow look..

I like it... very dramatic and foreboding even. Nice capture!
