But, the biggest problem I see here is the overly photo shopped skin. Even the creases at his knuckles are blurred. Back off on the skin smoothing and I think you've got some nice photos. Randy

Also they are way too OOF. I would schedule another appointment with him and use a tripod. I just got my first pair of glasses that I didn't think I needed. I apologize to anybody in the past year that I said their pictures were out of focus lol.

They do look OOF and WAY too much PP, even in the second one, but that's just my opinion... 5D3 | 16-35L | 45 TS-E | 50L | 85L | 100L | 135L | 24-70L | 70-200 II L | 580s | Zero, TT & Crumplers | and an X100!
