With the hands folded like that it almost seems like the bible, rather than a Grisham novel would have been more fitting. :) Nice capture, that works very well in B&W.

you are so good with life shots, no face required yet we can tell he works in a city,likes thrillers and reading, is smartly dressed with classic good taste with the modern touch(note the length of cuff). Works in an office or clean environment, not a manual worker but not manicured either. Clever image it speaks volumes!

Rui from Leiria, Portugal

Perfect. A detail that can tell a story, making us think and imagine this man's life and thoughts.
Very well spotted and the processing... WOW
Wonderful work Kylie

Tells a story for sure, John Grisham is ok, but only on sale lol and he obviously doesn't do much online if he has time for books lol neat shot Ky!! i like it alot!!

Bill from Belton, United States

What a great shot Kylie! In color it would be a good shot.... but B&W somehow tells the story differently and more powerfully! I love it!

Michael Rawluk from Williams Lake, BC, Canada

There is nothing better than finding a book on sale. Can't see paying full price for that one. Maybe the library would be a better choice. Very nice shot. Terrific b+w tones.

As a book lover, I love this capture. I try to buy all of Grisham's books. Our two oldest love reading them. He's the one author who I prefer the movie over the book. (I can't believe I feel that way. Shame on me:-)
