So Peter,
Send it along! Post the url to your improvements. I'd be happy to see 'em.
The darkness of his face is something I wasn't sure about when I saw it on the contact, but printed up to 8x10, it's not so bad. You can see more detail that the scan. I'd be interested to see if your PS version is closer to the print.
Thanks for your comments. It was funny, but he asked me if I wanted to take a photo. Then he averted his eyes that way, and wouldn't look directly at me. He looked at me while I was talking, but not with the camera in front of my face (I tried talking with the camera up there, but it didn't work). I don't like to tell my subjects what to do (they participated in the process by "posing" the way they want to - just a silly personal thing), so I shot him the way he obviously wanted to be shot.
thanks, frank

It's an interesting image, makes one think. I found it a bit dark though. I opened it in photoshop and
lightened it a bit and added a touch more contrast. Brought out more detail in the subjects face, (I could see his
eyes, while leaving detail in the carving).
