Look great.  Never even think of using wide angle for portrait. How much face distortion is there

To be honest, i think on his left shulder there is visibel distorsion

The shoulder distortion does not bother me.  However, I always thought longer tele lenses for portraits compress the face feature (i.e, nose become compressed), and wider lenses tend to do the opposite, making a big nose for the subject.  Maybe my impression is all wrong.

It's necessary get closer to distort more, making a biger nose. But Mr. Franciso has reely this large face.
