"Programmes" - John In Mono

This is John who was number 22 in my 100 strangers series. I thought a mono shot showing John with one of his programmes might make a good filler.

Bolton will be relegated at the weekend when we lose. The three Bolton players on the front of John's programme, while being fit, are not fit for purpose as Bolton Wanderers players

Johns right eye was almost closed on all my shots of him , which makes me suggest it may be an issue with John's eye rather than bad timing on my photography

Edited in Rawtherapee with an Ilford Delta 400 film emulation and some serious slider adjustments on contrast and 'black point'
I think I like this portrait even better. I like the B&W, the addition of the program and the dark background. Very creative.

I think the addition of the program makes a good addition to his portrait too. The b/w and dark background are perfect.

I prefer this one too. Tells more of a story about the man. I'm really sorry about your relegation..........C'mon Leicester is all I can say!!
