      He looks just like the Uncle Sam you see in posters, except he looks more vulnerable, more human. The posters intimidate me, because they seem to stand for militarianism and blind obediance. But this guy... he looks like a crazy nice guy, someone you would want to know.

      Perfect use of the light, with the brighter side of the face at the center of the frame! I love his intense gaze. This is one of your best, Mo! Wonderful, I wish I'd taken this photo.
