Wisdom and Balance

Rancho Bernardo Inn

Tom Packard is one of my great male friends here in San Diego. I met him when we consulted to the San Diego Fire Department back in the early 1980’s. Tom is now professor at San Diego State and still does some consulting on the side. He is an extremely fair, balanced, and wise person.

Great portrait and the BW treatment is perfect.

Robin, I would classify this as the best portrait I have seen from you. Perhaps even the best photo. Great job putting it in b/w, certainly dismisses any distractions.
A big vote from me.

I haven't seen Tom in a long, long while. He does indeed look wise and balanced, which is how I experienced him way back when. Great portrait, R-squared!

I see wisdom in his eyes. I also see a peace I wish I had. This is one of your best, my friend. V!

It is said "The eyes are the window of the soul." Nice portrait.

Very nice portrait, Robin. He looks like he has a good wit and is always caring of other people.

I agree with Gary B. His eyes portray the mind of a thinker.
Gary Blanchette14-Jun-2006 22:16
You can see the way you described him in his eyes. Very intelligent looking.
