Today the Atlantic Canadian World War Two Living History Association had a World War II reenactment in Ross Farm Museum.
One of the 'soldiers' was this guy. his face had so much character that I had to take his picture. while doing so I already knew how I'll process the image, it will look like it was taken back then
what do you think? I succeeded?

FYI, the “All Sizes” option (the magnifying glass icon above the photo) lets you see a larger image.
