Processed this image using Topaz and NIK for the adjustments and I replaced the background with a texture -
*Cowboys in Texas are common - However, people/portraits are not really my genre or forte so this was a stretch for me. This is a candid capture during a Cattle Drive west of Fort Worth.

Great portraiture Jeff and much improved "after" image. #11879629Ann Coates February 27, 2021
What a great portrait. I think the original is still great and you did well to get the eyes so bright with the shade of the hat in the first place. Your treatment is spot on to get rid of the annoying bright white in the background. #11879648LJ Corliss February 27, 2021

Great work, Jeff! Speaking as someone who is in the same court with you on portraits. This is just wonderful. Joan is right! I thought it was Sam Elliot. I showed my wife and she ask about his "sexy" voice also! #11881035Jeff Robinson March 03, 2021
