HQ portraits from Benoit Paillé

Every time I check up his deviantART gallery, I'm amazed by his work! If you are stunned by the high quality of his work (click on photos to see a higher size on deviantART), Benoit explains how he works with strangers, light and post-edition as the description of one of his daily-deviations...
Keep up excellent work Benoit and thank you very much for sharing your wealthy depth sense!

Need new eye glasses

Ok, I definitely need new eye glasses. My current glasses are still awesome but old enough. I want new ones.
Here are my current:

Oakley Off Line 4.0

It's Oakley brand and it's the « Off Line 4.0 » model but mine are « Olive Chrome ». I bought them 231€ five years ago then now, I wanna change.
