| Not a fan of the title, but this was in my top group of picks. The only issue I might have is that shadow that cuts across his face. |

| This picture has a number of interseting qualities with the txtural differences between the hair and the beard. This added to the shades and the hat produce a frame for the almost totally obscured face. I do find the shadow from the had rather distracting. This can be reduced with some playing arounf in photoshop... |

| I love these older burly looking man photos, however the lighting/shadow on this is mildly distracting.... 7 |

And a lifetime of stories I'm sure he would share.
Very nicely spotted and composed, with good control of the lighting, especially in the shadows. (7) |

| Wonerful candid portrait of an interesting subject. I get the feeling he's a street busker, but I can't be sure because the frame's in close, which is something I like, it leaves me wondering. [10] |

| What a character, is he telling stories of your photo yet? |

| If not for the shadow falling across his face, this would be an excellent photograph. Next, I would suggest that you wait a few minutes for the sun to change positions so that the shadow doesn't distract from your image. |

"Watch in amazement as I identify all of the things caught in my beard..."
The color doesn't seem to add anything to the image, and I think that B&W would have emphasized the interesting textures. |

| Sun through the man's hair worked well, but I did not like the shadow cutting cross his face. Good choice of model. |

| A wonderful photo or a captivating subject. Great cropping and a nice shot of the subject looking out into the open space. I really like the dark background and the DOF. The lighting on his lower lip and beard is a bit harsh, and is the only bit of nitpicking I can do. One of my favorites and I shall score it accordingly. |

| SUCH a great photo. The title is perfect because that's exactly what I think when I look at him -- like he's got a million interesting stories to tell. I love the composition on this, and the focus is perfect. I just love the picture itself! Perffect 10. |

| I think the pose and background work nicely, what I think would make this even stronger is a sepia or black and white conversion. The colors don't really add the punch it needs. |

| Interesting looking fellow. Maybe a tighter crop or more of the face and less of the beard. Sun a bit too bright. Seems most of the focus is on his hat. |

| Shadow and highlight might have been used a little too much to brighten the shadow- otherwise great capture. |

| Something strange about the colors in the face and specially darkness around the nose... good for character image though |
