I asked my friend & coworker Tom Matteo if I could snap his photo for a blog post. He obliged. This is the original photo. I wasn’t sure where I was going with this, but I changed it around a bit and came up with the 2nd photo.
With the 2nd photo, I made it black & white, cropped it, slightly changed the lighting around his face and added a frame to make it look like filmstrip.
With this final version, I changed the frame, made the lighting on his face a bit more dramatic and added a filter to note deterioration.
I then composed a piece of music, that would be best appreciated with headphones to accompany the photo.
Enjoy

Tom told me he was embarrassed by the photo, he doesn’t think he looks cool at 64
