Tja, þessi fékk ekki eins feita einkunn og ég bjóst við. Þetta er samt alveg góð einkunn. Til hamingju!

Love the detail in the eye, but I'm not sure about the close crop - wish I could see the full face.

The half face portrait doesn't do much for me. I like close up portraits and I thing this was an opportunity missed

nice capture. I think I would have prefered a deeper DOF. Very nice textures in the skin and great clarity in the eye.

Title doesn't work for me - kind of pretentious for a less than pretentious person. But that doesn't really matter. Would have liked to see a very thin border but that doesn't really matter either. The focus and DOF of this image are perfect. The conversion to black and white extremely well done - tonal range excellent. Like the fact that you left in the noise - way too many images in this challenge are neat-imaged to death. This one is refreshing in its simplicity, it straight forward presentation of the person and his personality. 10 - good luck in the challenge.

Good DOF and you've captured the detail of the wrinkles really well.

Normally I'm not big on the half face portrait, but this one REALLY works.

One of the most powerful images I have seen in this challenge.
The depth of field on this keeps the focal point strong.
Very well done and adding to my favorites!
