Yup, thats a good one , It's a bit over exposed, but if you're up for some editing, I would use levels or curves to bring back the exposure and the higher contrast will make it really gritty.
It's so close to a great shot, I hope I haven't overstepped by editing your image, if I have please let me know and I'll delete it.
I have to agree with Ian. This shot has limitless possibilities. GREAT facial features and hands I hope you forgive Ian for messing with your image. That way maybe you can also forgive me too.....
I just couldn't help it. He has a perfect face for some draganizing, IMO.

Ian,
I appreciate all the help I can get. I will try what you suggested. I am happy that the raw material was there. I like how you have improved it.

In the manual versions I used quite a bit more saturation. For your pic all I did was run Mike Warren's Action and the 10D finisher "Subtle Color" Action.

You can find the 10D Finisher Action, about 1/2 way down the page, here http://www.canonians.com/sharpentest.htm
Look for Mike Warren's "Dragan Action" here
