Stripes indeed, they're everywhere! That's a great, arty B&W shot you've got there. Did you try burning in the more exposed side of his face just a fraction to see how that looked? I think it needs to balance with the rest of the light stripes so it doesn't grab the eye quite as much. That'd be close to being a print and hang shot, I feel.

Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful! What great stripes, everywhere, and I love the way they're going different directions. And B&W is so perfect for this.

Great shot, Charles. I love the competing lines in the shot. Excellent contrast, too! TFS
