I happened across this character at a country market. He was very happy to have his photo taken.

@kurt: Thanks Kurt
@Faramarz: Thank you. I was a bit nervous asking him and was so pleased he said yes. I struggled with the background and had to move around a bit. I am surprised it turned out as well as it did.

EXCELLENT portrait, Helen!! How could you pass up a face like that? I think there are many stories ingrained in those wrinkles.

I think you nailed this shot. Having AC/DC in the background is spot on for the shot.
