I love Black & White, mainly because there's nowhere to hide with it, this photograph is B/W at it's best , just love it.

Location
This was my very good friend joerg, I visited him one afternoon about 2 years ago, we were sitting in front of his house, the lightning was perfect together for his smoking addiction.... It was just a perfect moment for me and my compact camera ricoh cx-5! While looking at this shot after uploading to my laptop I saw a scull in the smoke... And I was scared about it... And about 2 weeks after this photo he had a stroke with several severe symptoms threatening his life. He spent 100 days in hospital in the emergency intensive care unit... I thought I would never see him again... He made it... But unfortunately 6 month ago he passed away in a second... I would love to share my award with him! I send him love to ??????heavenTime

My friend Jörg was an artist too, painter and photography, and he had such an interesting face.. I loved to shoot his unique personality ????Editing
Well it was in color so I changed it to b a w... I didn't post processing a lot, I don't remember, perhaps a bit more contrast..In my camera bag
