Just the right second to capture his solemn concentration, and the sun on his shirt ... mmmm.

Yeah, great portrait of the man. I might have gone for a little more contrast, but that probably would have overblown the lighter sections of the image. Great take Stu!

@Chris Sullivan: thanks chris. yeah, i played around with the contrast quite a lot but as you said it really overblew the lighter sections. had to make-do with this.
