Photographer's Note
This is "Lurch" from the Georgia band named "Knock Galley West". These guys can really put on a show and they are bursting with energy. It's some pretty hardcore psychobilly/rockabilly. More pictures to follow.
This is basically a BW conversion, with some boost in contrast and a slight colorizing to give the BW the tone you see (using color balance).
Thanks for looking, TW

Hi Tim,
This is a pretty funny photo.
I love this guy's expression.
Great choice of b/w to give it a R&R 60's feeling.
It seems like this photo was shot in the 60's or 70's--pretty cool!
Saludos!
Maryori :)

What a great shot! There is in that guy something "old" and something "modern" at the same time. In any case I like his rock mood!
Regards
