27-JUN-2009 Geoff Smith

Las Vegas, Nevada

When I took this shot (waist up), I thought his Harley Davidson tee shirt told his story; however when I began to edit the photo I quickly saw a lifetime written in his face.

A life of motorcycles, bars, and fights; but also a life of hard work and strong values.

I vertically shortened the crop to draw attention to the battle scars on his nose and the weariness in his eyes.

Love how the greys of his beard are complemented by his hat and the background.
