NICE image, great posing and expression, the composition is very good, grainy effect here is perfectly works. a very powerful image and you really deserved a ribbon here. Good luck to this submission

2- too grainy ... moody, but it distracts for me.

Excellent caputre, maybe just a little less grain, but I like the so relaxed expression. good luck

Wonderful title for this excellent photo. He is so... eleven. The grain and b&w work well. One of my favorites.

I like your bravery to make a grainy photograph - shows your artistic side.
I don't like how I tend to look up the child's nose. Nice soft eyes.

I like the grain, cool pose and good lighting

Love this portrait - the graininess, monochrome, framing, everything - the look on his face. - 8

I like the grainy feel to this...almost gives the feeling of an old family photo...nice tight crop and good contrasts

I like the expression captured. I like the grainy presentation, but its too grainy. Goes over the edge to become distracting.
03/16/2004 03:26:13 PM
Great look. BOL

A great capture of the subject's personality - something every portrait should strive to do. I like the tones and the lighting.

This photo makes me look again and again. It has a very old time charm too it. It almost looks like it was a painting of some sorts from old times. I would like to see it a bit brighter, but overall.... wonderful!
03/16/2004 04:09:32 AM
The grain works....I think?
03/16/2004 02:46:51 AM
Very, very nice. Unique pose, like the grain.
03/15/2004 05:46:30 PM
very nice detail and good pose for a young boy.
It looks a little on the grainy side I'm not sure why
Nice work
03/15/2004 02:39:42 PM
nice composition...looks a bit grainey
03/15/2004 01:40:35 PM
Too grainy.

This conveys so much in both pose and expression - boredom, resigned patience, weariness... this is a lovely portrait and has a timeless feel - even without the grain it could be an old photograph of a boy who ran with his friends in the streets 20 years ago, 50 years ago, 100 years ago or more. Excellent!

I love the pose........well done. Love the light and the grain also. This is excellent for the challenge. Hope you score well.
03/15/2004 05:38:20 AM
Superb. How do you get that grainy look done so well. 10
03/15/2004 04:44:41 AM
Grain works for this portrait very well indeed. The low contrast sets the mood, which complements the pose. I like the tilted pose which makes a nicle balanced composition.

the grain helps this one ... i like it
