Thanks for the kind words, Scrapster is one-of-a-kind with a unique personality. sometimes I really think he believes he's human.

Sheeeesh, is that icon an image of you? If so, you must be a model

Thanks again my friend.

Dave

Thanks for the input everyone. I printed the b+w at 5x7, and it looks pretty good.

Marie- it's the same shot, just with the color removed. I think it looks closer d/t the bigger file size. In the color one you can kinda see his 2 different eye colors, but other shots I have of him make it clearer. He needs a shave desperately, but he's got that junior rock star thing going on.

Life is good. Photograph it.

I knew it was the same shot

am glad you decided which one was best

it's always hard to decide, especially when we are looking at something for a while it gets even harder.

good luck

Ok clone out some of the blemishes on the color and thats the one I would choose and I almost ALWAYS prefer black and white. I love the color of his eyes! eyes always draw me into a photograph and sometimes that is lacking on a black and white picture. its a great shot. nice work.

no apology needed at all.
thanks
and just want to say I was only joking when I said 'dude' as I wanted to say your name
and saw the 'txdude'
so it was to be either TX or Dude

I still prefer the colour but understand why the other may be the best choice
