| I'm far from the first to mention this one in the comment bombing, but I love it, I've always loved it, and I always will. There's something about that guy that just hits me right in the familiar area of my heart. |

This picture started an entire forum thread about candid shots, by stating that this is the best.
Yeah, I can certainly agree. This is one GREAT picture!
Besides the great details and light and perfet DOF, this photo makes me so curious about the man I am looking at. He makes me want to talk to him, to understand what's in his head.
Pure art. You know how to do it!

I can't help but keep coming back this image, the tilt of the head and classic glasses give this so much character almost a modern day Asian version of Jim Morrison.
This is one of my top ten images on this site and can't believe you didn't get a ribbon for this. |

| Returning to comment, this is a great capture, the broken glasses adds to a slightly dishevelled appearance but the colour of the jacket and the scalf certinly support the eccentric title.. |

Great title for this shot.
This is one that deserves a closer look, as there are so many things to notice here.
I hope the voters will have taken the time to study this shot, especially the makeshift repairs on the broken glasses. (7) |

| What happened to his poor old glasses? It sure adds to the picture. He looks like he is a million miles away. Good shot. The background looks a little busy but I like it. |

| Great textures in the picture. I really like the shallow dof to separate him from the rest of the crowd. I have studied this one a lot, from the interesting eyeglasses to his expression. Your title fits perfectly and it is a truly amazing portrait. |

| Guess the title says it all! Excellent candid shot, very crisp/sharp with nice DOF. This guys glasses are even a little off, would love to know his story and what he does for a living. Wonderful capture! |

| He could be the most interesting subject in this challenge! The way he's fixed his glasses says so much about the way he lives. I think this photo may even be improved if you'd crop in closer to get that mended lens to a third-point. Maybe crop out the left side to near his head and crop from top & bottom to get the proportion right. But I'm a cropaholic anyway. [10] |

| Like your timing - that eye through the broken glass is precious. The centred/non-centred composition works reall well - the shape of him in frame is nicely symmetrical, and yet the natural pull of the viewer's eye tto the subject's eyes takes one to a strong plane in the image. The thoughfulness, and the direct look you've captured is effective too. A man with a truly non-self-cntred view of the world - I like him immediately. |

| This is very good. The fabric texture, the angle of head, the blurring of background, plus the shattered glasses add up to a very pointed portrait..9 |

| Indeed- really makes the viewer want to study him! I might have asked if he'd stop and pose for a few shots, or at least fire off several in a row and see if he looks more in the direction of the camera. The frame bisecting his right eye is a tad distracting. |

| IMO by far the best entry of this sort of picture in the challenge. I look at it and look at it and keep finding more. The condition of the eyeglasses, of course, is key to the whole thing, as is the lovingly-rendered sense of texture throuighout. |
