[Michael Graves]

People must like to shoot people. The newest new thread it getting cumbersome, so I'm going to start another one. Just trying my hand at portraiture for the first time in decades.

Stefan, that's lovely. I wouldn't change anything. For fun, explore removing the front lens and just focus with the back one to see what you get. You'll need 2X bellows and light.

Arkady,

Although such tight head-shots don't normally do it for me, I really love this one. terrific composition and lighting. The sepia tone does wonders for it as well.
