That Rembrandt light is fantastic. That clock! Good God. What's the story here?

Thanks, Cameron! This photo was made in the early 90s. The man, Mr. Frazier, had an antique store, and the clock was in a back storage area. This is in West Virginia, and I believe, if memory serves, he told me the clock was once inside the governor’s mansion. Not sure how he acquired it. It is an imposing clock. Mr. Frazier is now deceased.

Wow! Two exceptional portraits back to back. I would be proud to have made either of these. Igor, yours is the kind of portrait I envision making of associates of mine -- historic and timeless, if you like that irony; straightforward and yet rich. The warm tonality is also my aim. Thank you for re-ispiring me. Ben, a beautiful job of lighting and composing in a very challenging environment.

Made my day, gentlemen!
