Haha...you know....he's still behind the camera...in fact..everytime I see him he's behind the camera :roflSorry....I like the edgyness.....It may be the sharpening? It would be fun to see this in a different conversion b&w too. The copper tone seems subdued?

One very sharp 85mm f1.4 shot at f3.5 , did some sharpening in capture nx2 then a bit more in lightroom..

I actually like the 1st one better. Great shot though either way!

Love the first!
Reminds me of the famous Dziga Vertov and his movie man with a movie camera. Its worth checking out if your into artsy stuff. :D

I like the tone on the first one very much
The crop is cool as is the expression.

First one for me. The copper gives the photo more of a "feel".

I'll agree with most everyone else... first one looks much better IMO.
