The old man and the sea










My friend Bill Bishop has one of those character faces. And I thought he'd be perfect for a series of images with the Point Judith Lighthouse in the distance. He's also a musician. We spent some time on Saturday at the ocean, with a great storm swirling around us. It was blowing in 40 mph gusts, they say. But it was absolutely worth it to get these images. Bill is not much of an internet guy, so I'll be making prints for him.

Great work, Jim!
You really captured WHO this man is. I think you nailed the storytelling angle of this portrait.
Nicely Done!
