I like this one. Super sharp and well composed with an interesting expression on his face.
Two lights? What lens and settings?

Ciao Jim,

I never plan my shots, especially people, I went to him for a haircut and I was curious to test the Contax Yaschica Planar 100/2 which I adapted on a Nikon Z6II for instance, for sure shot wide open and very high ISO, only ambient light, matter of luck to hit the focus at such aperture with a 100mm.

Grazie

p.s. forgot to mention he's a barber

Great shot there @GiovanniAprea

This reminds me of the Zeiss 100/2 Macro I used to have, but this lens draws much more gently compared to the Zeiss macro

Thats what I've done in the past. Using a Zeiss Makro Planar 2/100 to photograph old people. And the subjects havent been happy at all.
