San Jacinto Day Portrait 1

This gentlemen found the best shady spot on the San Jacinto Battleground to sit and take a load off for a moment. I guess it's reasonable to assume anyone who would be interested in dressing up in a period costume to recreate and event like this historic battle would not be camera shy, and this man was no exception. He was very gracious in allowing my brother and I take as many photos as we liked.

Very simple but effective portrait. Your post processing adds to the image--I image that it helped simplify the background and makes you focus more on his face. Really good job.

Yes, really great environmental portrait. Great use of black and white.
