The Gambler.

by tommyt

Low key shot of the old man, done in Film Noir style. I like to mess about with old lenses sometimes and this is a self-portrait, using my Pentax K-3 11 and the aus jena Pancolar f1.8, 50mm, manual lens, set at f4 and the camera self-timer.

I was looking at the hands too. The whole is a smashing shot but a crop to just the hands and the chips would work well too.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Thanks for commenting Flan, davidwozhere and Giulio....I tried cropping to just show the hands and chips on the table and i fully agree, it does work well. Thanks once again lads. Best Wishes..tommyt
