One of the two favourite portaits in this challenge. So different. The man with attitude which you captured perfectly. I think you cropped it a little bit too much. 9.

Great portrait, tells a story. Seems a bit noisy.

A pipe, eh? Well only a true pimp can get away with something like that. Were I to meet a man such as this I would ask him how mnay wives has he gone though. The answer would likely be "3". Nice picture.

Great photo, this image lends itself well to B&W. You have a great profile portrait. Possibly you could have croppedd it right under his chin and pipe. 8.

returning for comments:
A very good b/w study with great tones and of course character due to the nice model. Bumping up.

Nice side view and I like the blurred but textured background. The lenses of the specs seem a bit strange, perhaps it's just because they are so thick and it's a shame the glasses stem crosses just where his eye is but... it's does make it more anonymous which isn't a bad thing. Nice work!
