1 month after the passing of his wife, I had the opportunity to still capture the raw emotional sadness.

This is fantastic. One of the best portraits I've seen on Byte. Love the emotion, lighting, framing, black and white tones.... I like everything about this. i wish it were in my portfolio.

This is a very powerful image. The first time I opened it I immediately closed it again because I didn't want to think about the sadness here.

I agree with both the previous comments, this is technically excellent and deserving of the highest rating.

A remarkable photograph. The emotional impact is profoundly moving. It's technically superb too. I haven't seen a better portrait here or almost anywhere else. Thank you so much for posting this.
