I think these two qualify for the "Characters" project! What fascinating faces, and despite the fact that neither man is speaking, you can feel that they spend many an afternoon in conversation.
I like this close-cropped version better than the wider view, Herman, even though the other version shows more interaction. It's more intimate and has less distractions. I might have cropped a little more off the top, just because that partial mirror and the extreme closeness to the top of the barrel bugs me a little.
