what an excellent portrait - B&W really works well here.

Superb Tessa! I bet your Dad will be secretly very pleased with this lovely portrait.

Tessa, your photo intrigued me, it's a very good enigmatic shot so I was tempted to reprocess the image. See what you think. If you don't like it, I'll delete it and keep my tinkering to myself.
