Looks like a very expressive face. Maybe needs a little dodging to get detail in subject's left side. I'd have thought that in Salonica that the light would almost never need D3200. I remember using it on the Isle of Mann( small island in the Irish Sea) on a dull day in Summer and wanting to use a slow speed to capture blurred movement on a large waterwheel and even with a red and polariser filters could barely get a slow enough shutter speed.It was TT week( motorbike racing) and D3200 was great for that.
 
Thanks for the comment.I 'm new to real B/W photography, so i'm trying any kind of film that i can get.I know that the facial details are missing and especially the eye details which are usually the most important feature/element in a portrait.However i feel that i've managed to capture something about this man's character.His rugged and heavely tanned face tell a lot about his difficult way of life in the streets of Salonica.And although i can't see through his eyes, i can see and feel his agony for survival through his dark eye openings.
