The GenX Thinker

My co-worker Brandon has posed for me in the past and let me snap a few shots at the end of the day today. This last weekend he went on a road trip with his brother and shaved a mohawk along the way. Not sure of the significance, but I thought it made for a good portrait.

I uploaded two of the shots today, but chose this one as my daily "entry" into the contest. You agree with the choice?

A good portrait of a pensive thinker. Does he have the world on his shoulders, a girl perhaps or maybe he just chose the wrong lotto numbers........

This has a very retro feel to it. Like it's right out of the '50s. Great post-processing & coloring.

Yes, this is the one! You caught the expression perfectly! Pictures are supposed to tell stories and this one makes you wonder what he is thinking.

I quite like the very effective muted treatment of this one and his pose/expression.
