He'd be a fun guy to bring to one of your wedding shoots as an assistant! ;) :D

Made an immediate impact on me not only for the character but for the book-like frame which enhances... congrats.

So you've finally found someone to take on your extra weddings - he looks just the person to handle the PR work, and talk to the Brides Mother :- )

Great shot.

lol, cool shot. The crazy border works for this shot,

Interesting character and image. I suspect your unusual frame would get you dis qualified for adding image elements. I ignored this when scoring your image.

Excellent!

Weird border but good portrait. I especially like the way the rim of the hat is lit.

03/24/2008 06:10:02 PM
fun black and white. Perfect contrast!

don't like the lopsided border.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/22/2008 03:52:29 PM
You've certainly captured his crazy side -- interesting border.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/22/2008 03:13:02 PM
There's a great sense of defiance to this.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The odd boarder works well with the odd character in the picture. The black and white conversion is nice and the background is out of focus but you can still make out what's going on behind him. However, I do not see how the environment says anything about "crazy Amzie." ...5 (for making an unusual boarder work)

Seems like a crazy guy.

Kind of an odd choice for the border...a bit distracting, unfortunately.

BW works well for this subject

What a character! Great shot and processing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/20/2008 12:02:50 PM
Cool shot and a most unusual way of framing this.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/20/2008 08:51:59 AM
I really love this shot. I'm not sure if it's terribly strong in terms of the EP theme but who cares. Lotta fun to look at. I also like the border but I think others will not. Could hurt you in the voting, that is if you care. Cheers and Good Luck!

i absolutely love the bw conversion. everything, including his pose, work really well together. dont care about the border though but that has nothing to do with photography. so 8 (without considering my dislike of the border)

I'd like to see a little more of the street for environmental portrait, but this is definitely and interesting character and an excellent photo. I like the frame. It adds to the drama.

03/20/2008 04:04:55 AM
good portrai, but nit much of his environment visible here. the huge black part at left is rather distracting

I will be very intetrested to see how this does! Love the border :D Excellent black and white conversion hope this does better than what I think it will.

Awesome.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/18/2008 08:45:32 PM
I dont' get the border but i'm feeling the shot, its awesome, composition has a perfect tightness to it with the lamp, camera, and hat flirting with edges ever so slightly. And of course the expression seals the deal. 10

wonderful. The camera feels out of place for some reason.
