I really love photos like this. The detail and texture are so amazing. Strong finish, but I liked it to at least finish on the front page!

very good portrait - a man on the phone, interesting & good edit. If not captured w/phonecam, & obviously not necessary - an image displaying some gritty, appropriate character of one. A challenge fav

Very oversharpened, gives this a bit of a comical effect for a bad-news-shot.

Love the contrasts and the textures of the face. Maybe the crop is just slightly too tight. Would have liked to have seen slightly more of the phone!

Definitely intense, attention grabbing and has some feeling. Hard to tell where whiskers end and face begins. - 9

much oversharpened
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I would score higher, but I think your processing is distracting. It is to oversharpened or something giving it a frosty look.
