Three views of the problem it seems. http://gallery.leica-users.org/album337/Threemen <<<< Hi Don, Very interesting with the focus point right on the mark to make the shot work. To have focused on either the near or far man it wouldn't have had the same impact. Not to forget, it's a perfect example of "shooting from the shadow side" by luck or otherwise. ;-) But in your case I'd say it was seeing the light, without thinking about it and re-acted to both light and expression. Click! This type of lighting, Rembrandt lighting, makes him stand out more so than if he were lit flat frontal light. Because of the "shadow-side" on the face, his expression is accentuated making ther expression stand out more so. Well done in quite probably a split second moment. ted
