Didn't score too well, but I think a valiant effort. This place can be intimidating what with all the pros lurking about, not to mention the Icelandic beauty queens modeling for them.

My first entry was far and away worse than this one and got a score to support that fact. Welcome aboard :)

The image seems kind of flat in my opinion.

Pretty good portrait, seemingly capturing a bit of his character. I find myself wondering what he's leaning on. The cut out line is just enough to make me curious, but not enough to really see what it is. If it was an obvious desk or counter top perhaps I would be less likely to give it a second thought. Jut my humble opinion.

Good portrait, but the image is too small and too soft.

Good traditional posing. I wish the subject was more in focus.

nice lighting, nice composition other than his knuckles cut off. Very nice.

This picture is only 470 pixels high - it could be 640 pixels high and have more impact.

This is a great natural light portrait. Well done.

Not sharp (a bit of USM works wonders) and more contrast (S curve in curves) woudl help a LOT. Pic lacks 'snap' without them.
