I love the light on his face. It's too strong in the white spots, however.

I like this. I kinda wish one of the patches of light crossed his face but the bill of his cap prevents that.

Would have liked to see his face closer (tighter and closer cropp) with high contrast and B&W.... Cool picture.
Good luck...

I really like the light and dark. The areas around his face look a bit grainy, but you might be going for that effect, which is cool. Overall, I like it. Nice change from the stereotypical female models. Good luck! 8

Very interesting image. I like the lighting. It looks like natural sunlight through a slotted window. But the non-lit area of the face is well done too. congrats.

Sorry, but I don't like the effect of the light.

I like this setup, wonder how a fill in flash would have worked here..

Nice attempt. If you had managed to get one of the light rays to fall on his eye and a bit of a tighter crop it could have been great. 5

the grain on reds is a bit too distracting

Fabulous character shot. The light seems to hit in just the right places. It really highlights the beard. 8

Fantastic shot. I like the way light falls on the barb. The contrast is excellent.

Interesting study. Could be further helped by noise removal

Noisy skin bothers me..

I like this very much. It is striking and not the "typical" portrait. The lighting is wonderful and helps add to the drama of his countenance. I love the beard and craggy face. Your use of negative space helps showcase his features. I wish it were a bit tighter zoom, as I'd like to really study all of the textures of his skin. Well done.

LOVE THE LIGHTING! The subject is wonderful too! This is one of the best I've seen thusfar- I love the outside the norm feeling you got, this is just fantastic! Best of luck to you! :D

Nice picture. Interesting lighting. I think it's kind of funny, though, that the tip of his nose is lit.
