The Duke - a photo on Flickriver

The Duke

            A portrait of Robert Tilley, the best friend I’ve made since I came to Canada 3 years ago as an international student. I took this portrait one day before Robert turned 73 years old. Robert's grandfather, who was born in 1882 and lived a legendary life in Canada’s Northern territories and Atlantic region, had the nickname 'Duke,' an abbreviation of his full name William Marmaduke Tilley. I think the name Duke is perfect for this portrait. The coat Robert wears in the portrait was made by himself 40-some years ago. 

For people who are curious about my equipment: I took this photo with Nikon D850 and Nikon 24-70mm f2.8 lens.
