This is a wonderful engaging refreshing portrayal. The expression and lighting and framing which make the composition (lines, shapes, spaces) work extremely and subtly well. |

This should have placed much higher. The composition is strange with so much room above his head (which is why I assume this placed so low), but I don't think it would have worked nearly as well had you used traditional composition. I like this shot a lot. |

I had given this a 7. A tighter crop and maybe some additional processing (sharpen, NI?) would have improved bit, I think. I wonder how it would look in black and white? |

I love the picture and the look in his eyes. I think the lighting seems dark and there's a lot of space above his head. |

Great crop, ok lighting. Love to see it with a bit more contrast or reshot with less soft light. |

The more I look at this image the more I like it. I don't think it's so much the quality of the image as it is the expression on his face. |

I wish you had cropped more of the top so I could better see grandpa's face (better use of space) but, I think the lighting you used enhanced the texture of the subject. well done |

Interesting crop (or framing). I'm not sure I like it, but it surely graps your attention. |

Very nice shot. There is a bit too much dead space on top. I think a tighter crop would look better. |

A good shot but IMO it might have been better to close up on the subject. There is lots of weathering there! |

I would have cropped the top of the image, also contrast is lacking so the "age" doesn't pop out |
