Great work, Garth! That tie, oh my gosh, your patience.

Beside the complete mastery of the medium, the getting of the likeness, the perfection of the work, I am impressed with what must be your ability to strike up a trust and rapport, which is reflected in your subject's facial expression.

I'm also touched by the photo of the occasion, with what is probably the man's wife holding his arm, as if to indicate how emotionally moving this event is to her as well.
