Rick, I actually had that cropped out in an earlier version, but I didn't like that much of the wheel being cut off. Generally, I do agree with you about the hair. Perhaps just burning it a bit, or (gasp!) cloning it out? Okay, not cloning, but I'll try toning it down a bit next time I'm fiddling with it. Thanks to everyone who commented.

Re: PESO - Coffee Driven
Frank, The bars/tubes make an interesting compositional element here. The back story is interesting and the patterns add to the visual. The colors of the tattoe and bag favor color over B&W.
