Description
We were friendly competitors coming from a similar background.
Both of us had worked for, and then continued the business from our fathers. We grew to know each other and were friends, sharing interests in the business economy, cameras and watches. In this instance we had taken time off from work to eat at a downtown restaurant. As always I brought a camera wherever I went and took the time to take this spontaneous portrait of him, as he sat in front of me, as we waited.
Quite a penetrating gaze with his eyes just off level, the style Renaissance portrait artists liked to use. Taken with my Leica M2, with 50mm F2.0 Summicron on Kodak Tri-X 135mm panchromatic film in the mid 1970s.
Feel free to download, just give me photo credit.

This portrait has a lot of power, yet the back lighting was so strong, it made a difficult image to print. I held back presenting this image for over a year, but could not shake the strength it offered and decided to post it.
