Such clarity. If I didn't know better I'd think he was sitting right in front of me. |

Excellent portrait. I want to jump into it and find out his story. |

Nice story-telling portrait. The model and garb both provide excellent interest. 9. |

Excellent light and excellent moment to hit the shutter. I'd rather that the focus were on the eyes instead of the nose but that's just nitpicking. What I have a real issue with is the framing. That's to say that even though I appreciate the sense of intimacy provided by such tight framing on the face, personally I'd like to see a more "environmental" approach so as to place the person and the photo's message/story in a [wider] context. I assume, judging by the clothing -particularly the headgear-, that he's an Afghan man, and I really think that showing more of his environment, or at least showing a bit more of him, would have strengthen even further what is already quite a powerful photograph in its own right. |

oh i like this a lot. would have liked a little more light on his eyes, but the shadows add a little mystery and a solemn mood. love the shallow DOF. |

I love the character that is so strong in this shot - almost feels like a candid. Great light & shadow. Very nicely done. Back to bump you up to 9. |

Brilliant. ONe of the best of the challenge. I love the eyes, the glance, and the use of the fabric of the scarf. Great lighting, composition and crop. Looks like something you'd see in LIFE magazine. |
