Shel,

I realize that you decided to cut off (or through) his hands. I mean you 
most probably did that on some kind of purpose. I think that it breaks 
the whole shot.

But if you say that it was "quick grab" then of course my comment 
probably does not apply.

I will be looking forward for more Charley's portraits.

Boris
