A great face with a great expression. Interesting choice to go with a darker tone set.

Whoa, this startled me a bit! I'm not sure about the black and white for this, but it is certainly a unique portrait.

I really like the high contrast bw in this and how his personality seems to literally jump off of the monitor

Don't assume that because you have an affinity for your subject, the rest of the world will too. Otherwise, a good workmanlike photo.

Insane,demented look in those eyes, scary. good shot
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Looks like a Pixie caught unawares. The wide eyes and unsmiling mouth makes it hard to determine whether this is a happy expression. The ears look pointed. Freckles are interesting.

Hmmm... I'm not wild about the processing here.
