kjgordon
ha….....kool…...........he is probably a software engineer….........
BarbaraManis replied
Thanks, Kj! You’re probably right!
Evita
♥ Excellent capture !! :D ♥
BarbaraManis replied
Thanks so much, dear Evita!
Jan Timmons
Good portrait, Barbara. You captured his soulful or world-weary eyes. Heck, what do I know? You’re the social worker; does he look mean or disappointed by life?
Perhaps kjgordon is right, and he works as a software engineer. Good capture. There’s a story in it.
BarbaraManis replied
Jan, I think Kj is right! It’s only pretend anyway. All these guys dress up for the weekend and have fun! Thanks so much!

Well done, Barbara. It was very tough to get good portraits at this event. I was lucky to get one.

It was really tough! Thanks so much, Linda! It was great to finally meet you also!

BRILLIANT PORTRAIT, Barbara.
Elegant. Dignified.Characteristic.
I wonder, what is written on the star of David…is it in dutch?
BarbaraManis replied
Thank you so much, I’m so glad you like it! No, it says “Tombstone, and the vigilante.” Tombstone is the name of the town!
