Thank you for the dedication my friend...good to 'see' you again!

dude... this photo is sick....

A-m-azing!! ))

ps> you might want to wok more on them printed dollars - they might get you in trouble with the local authorities! )

There is an indication on the printed dollars that says "for photography use only".
The printing store asked me what was the purpose of those dollars,so they place some kind of "watermark" on them.
So i am legal...for a mafia guy!!!

OK. First, the mood you have created is phenomenal! I feel it to the point I literally have goosebumps....REALLY.
Subtle but to the point without over kill.
The same goes for the title. Which is perfect btw.
The old school phone - Nice touch. I love your expression. And by all the smoke, you must have a lot of patients.
The lighting and composition of course is great. I could go on and on!
I am inspired!

bandit...you're praising the 'master' of lighting here...yea, he's good (an understatement!)

I meant it as in - the lighting and composition is great as usual, but his creation....
He really out did himself this time! (double entendre intended)

BTW, What is up with the new avitar?

Don't get me wrong...I understood, indeed...a superb portrait as always. The attention to detail in the author's themed portraits is always complete.

Author ... YOU ROCK

I knew it! You do live in a cave! Lol. Perfect job yet again my friend

Wonderful, this will be a hard one to beat.

Excellent shot !!! Good luck !

Nice shot, i love the dof in this photo & that 'film noir' concept really work here.

Great shot!

Really nice job, to keep the focus on a black phone in a dark B&W image is very well done. Great lighting and DOF!

REALLY GOOD! I LIKE IT!!

Cool shot..well done!

Yup. thanks what I thought. Not that you need it but GL!

Think I can guess the author. Wonderful shot really tells a story. Almost a scene from Hitchock movie.

You never cease to amaze me my friend........ this is a great composition. So very simple, yet so very strong. If this does not win, there should be an enquiry......

Fantastic shot...gl

congrats

Congratulations, well deserved
