   Love the portrait, curious as to how you set up the encounter and where you were. Something very genuine in the face.

   We were downtown Atlanta shooting the skyline at night when this gentlemen came up to us. Sometimes i ignore the homeless, but i was in a charitable mood so I asked him to pose after i gave him some cash so he could eat.

   Great lighting on his face, are you using on camera flash? Vert Nice portrait.

   It was too dark, and I wasn't prepared for a portrait, so I just used the on camera flash.

   I would have used my 580 plus the Apollo Micro Diffuser if it was handy.

    really nice capture.

    you should try out a couple of different filters in PS. he's a smidge too gold almost yellow. bronze would be nice balance.
