Thanks, Don.
I need to come up with a good name for the genre. /Trou dans le mur/,
maybe?
After all, the place where I work could be fairly described as such, and
that shot (as well as the first LeeAnn shot I took) were literally taken
through a hole in the wall between the bar and the pool room.

Looks like an actor from the tv series Sopranos. I like the photo and
its composition. You may a genre niche all to yourself here.

Here's a shot I took a few nights ago of another one of our resident
characters at the club where I work. This guy is one of the more
cantankerous drunks we have, but once you get a handle on how to deal
with him, he's a pretty good guy. Like a lot of the people I deal with,
he has phrases that he tends to lean on when he's well into his cups.
"Hey! Lemme tell ya somethin'!" "And another thing!" "You talkin' about
me?" "Don't start no shit!"
He also happens to be a really good pool shot and only seems to get
better the drunker he gets. Here he is shooting a game over the weekend:

K-5, FA 50/1.4, f/2.8, 1/60 sec., ISO 1600
I thought it was an interesting shot because he looks a bit like a Dick
Tracy character to my eye.
Comments and critiques are, as always, eagerly solicited.
