Portrait of Hugh Ward Jnr

    A little more light around the left eye and this would be a perfect portrait. The man's character is well captured; a bright, open and engaging personality, a real Australian.

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Quasymody, I'm just going to pause for a moment and be thankful that you came into our lives. This is wonderful! Thank you so much! This is also interesting in regards to the numbers of portraits that are turning out to be related to Sydney's theatre scene in the 1920s. A feel a blog coming on...

    Cheers, P
    (an excited Digital Curator)
