Shot this today and didn't get the shot or outcome i wanted. This guy told me he was from Arizona and he was a native American. We chated for a few minutes , the thing missing is the beers, he was wasted drunk, i could see the sadness and despair in his eyes.

You captured the sadness in this man's eyes, and there seems to be a lot of it. The photo makes me wonder what kind of trials and tribulations he has been through. From a stylistic point of view, I find the hat a bit distracting, but it isn't always easy to ask someone to take their hat off.

Our Native Americans were dealt a real raw deal! They have not been given the respect they are due!

This image tells that. The beer is just a consequence of his/their dispare!
Well done!

It’s a haunting portrait Mike, the sadness comes through. I like your choice of black & white for this, more powerful to me.

Nice, albeit sad, photo. I'd crop right above the brim.

I assumed I was looking at female for a few moments, finally soaked in otherwise. Nice image. Makes a person stall and look/examine for moments.
