Being an ex coal miner myself Skylar, I can feel the relief at the end of a shift in his face. Wonderful.

There is nothing not to like here - the close up of the pose, the fantastic detail, those wonderful eyebrows and eyes and the overall expression tells a great story.

Heather - Thank you so very much! I love narrative, and when you can convey that in a portrait, even better.
