Very nicely done Penny, I like the close framing. Is his jacket only half on, or isit half off? His left shoulder seems to be just shirt but intellectuals are known for not being able to dress themselves:-)

Great job with the hand holding after one glass of wine! Nicely detailed portrait. jano

Not boring at all but a well executed portrait in not-so-easy lighting. Very appealing capture projects him as a pleasing personality. The centered eye communicates so directly as it pulls us into his world. -tv

Yes, hand held after at least one glass of wine. (Could my new lens do better at high ISO? it seems to, but I really don't know if that could be) This was at my company holiday party. Penny Street

Good composition.It must have been taken in very low light, but the post processing looks really good.
Was this hand held at 1/25 sec?

Interesing look and very good skin tones. Very clean shot for the high iso. DaB
