Look its a good photo to start with - the color and lightening to the BW
is subtle and nice... I like either of those a bit better than the full
color - but it is a nice unaffected shot whatever you do with it.

That type of photo manipulation isn't my normal style, which I guess is a good
reason to try it. And I forgot to thank you for the suggestion. Suggestions
for things that I wouldn't normally do is exactly the reason that I post photos
to the list.
I think my favorite version of the photo is still the plain B&W.
I'm inclined to agree. In the new, manipulated version, the color of
the "whites" of the eye make him appear jaundiced. I realize it's
probably the same as the color version, where it looks fine, but the
B&W face accentuates the warm color of the eyeball.
Good point. I just tweaked the color balance and did a little work on exposure
compensation, dodging and burning.
I think I dialed this version in a little better, and learned a bit more about
the limitations of my skill in photo manipulation.
