  Thanks. Luck played its part. This fellow appeared at the bar door as I walked by. I asked him of I could photograph him. 'Of course', in perfect English so he was shot twice. I used the Gradiant Mask in PS to find the high contrast which I feel suits this frame, but not all.

This is a picture portraying a man in an eye-catching outfit. He looks satisfied with his life and interacting with the photographer.

The left sides reflections in a window make clear that it's taken on the street. A wonderful combination, which remain in memory.

Sharpness and tonal curves are on a high quality level, so technique, motif and expression come together, creating a beautiful photo.

  Absolutely correct, Hansi. The qualities of the Fujinon 33mm 1.4 are well-known. In combination with the XE4, I have found an ideal 'street' combination.

I like the composition of the picture, which is both condensed and open. You read it counter-clockwise, from right to left: First comes the imposing man, then the lettering, and finally the reflection of the street and row of houses diagonally opposite, with a simultaneous view into a pub or bar. Complex and yet very "tidy". Praise and greetings.

  Gerhard: Thanks for the comprehensive overview. Retrospectively, with the benefit of time, I attempted to make a quality composition but only in the editing phase. The actual shots - two were taken - were all over in about five seconds. I asked the subject if I could photograph him. He agreed, warmly and without reservation, as you can see. I opted for monochrome. Thanks again and cheers from Kaunas.
