Nice face expression, you just needed to be more in focus. Go on like this. Alex

your shot looks a little soft, maybe more contrast would help and how about a little blue tint ?
Good facial expression.

A little out of focus. Looks too snap-shotty. Heavy shadows falling across the eyes.
You're a cutie!

Little out of focus...thanks

This looks like the photo from your profile. I like your expression here, and the simple sample of suroundings as background.

A bit blurry, and I don't know what the stuff on the left adds. Maybe crop to just your face?

this photo is a kinda fuzzy, it could have been in better focus. I like that you're off center, it gives it a different feeling, but it's a little too much, I would have cropped a little off the left side. Good job though

This picture makes it look as if you identify strongly with those bottles on your dresser.. Unless that was intentional, i think the picture was a bit of a miss, I am afraid. (3)

I see spot cream, hair gel, shampoo and conditioner there. This photo says more about you than you think it does. Unless you meant to indicate your teenage obsessions.

Focus seems off.
Strong composition (for me, I like the inclusion of the environment and how that's been composed in).
Lighting a little harsh though works OK in this image.

Hi there, this is David (Levin), right? I like how your face is to one side of the photo. I think the pict might be better if you hadn't cropped off your one ear. Also, you need to focus more on the eyes, and, if possible, make them more prominent - you have beautiful eyes, but they're not showing enough. Another thing is that the background, even though blurry, competes for attention with your face. ~6

Just cutting off a bit of your ear doesn't work well. You need a little more room on that side. The bg clutter is distracting.
Your expression is good.

Focus is a little too soft

I like this - has a documentary feel and gives the sense that there is a story to be told. Well done -9

Yo,
Interesting choice in background. I might have focused more on your face and used a smaller DoF, so the background was even more out of focus. Nice use of the rule of thirds.

Not bad. I would have voted higher if it was a bit sharper. Also the background dresser is a bit distracting. I find myself trying to figure out whats on it.

I recognize you! Keep working it My young Friend:) Something more of interest in the backround would have been great.
