Plus, Mark's expression seems to fit the look of the image well on that one. (I'm guessing you had to actually add noise to that one, since the 5D is so clean. If you'd shot my D200 at ISO1600, you'd have had the same or more effect right out of the camera.) I'm sure if they cut you loose for the album artwork, that's what they'd get: art.

In my head, I saw it a bit darker and grittier, but I kept reigning myself back in because this needed to work commercially for Mark as a headshot. Album art is a whole 'nother story brother! :) Thanks Brian!
