Looks like Justin is taking a smoke break and needs a new pair of jeans. Nice sharp details.

Nice portrait. Not a big fan of the smoking, but thats a personal thing, and I dont think it hurts the photo.

Very well done candid portrait in a unique and intersting setting...reminds of either an album cover or album sleeve photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is so natural and well presented... Clarity and tones are perfect. Crop may be a tad tight at the top, but I'm really splitting hairs to find anything wrong here. Absolutely beautiful shot.

Great job on the exposure all the way around.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 12:16:55 PM
i like the location but the pose looks strained, like you were telling him what to do at this moment
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Great clarity and colors. I love the fact that this image has not been pushed to much in post processing. At least it apperas to be that way. Well done.

I like the ruggedness of this photo and then the soft green plant/weed in the front. Justin's not bad either
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 08:07:29 AM
perfectly exposed portrait
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Justin should stop smoking! Just kidding, but my eyes do go to the cigarette first when I think they should go to his face first. I like the photo other than that.

Nice portrait.

I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1116 images, I gave 97 of them an 8. Your image was one of those 97, placing you well within the top 10% for this challenge.

A lot of portraits in this challenge, but I really love the relaxed feel of this one. Nice compostion and setting. I'm sure i recognise this guy too, but can't place him. Has he ever done any TV work? Lol... I like the wistful far away look on his face.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

Justin's portrait is well composed and I really like the background. I wish his left eye were in such deep shadow.

Nice candid moment. Colors and body position are wonderful. The metal frame to the left adds an interesting element, and the greenery creates depth.

  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 08:20:13 PM
i'm not personally against smoking, but what is the purpose in the photo? It just throws me off; this looks like it's supposed to be a casual headshot type of thing, and instead, he's smoking. hmmm
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Taking a smoke break. Very candid looking shot. Seems natural.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 01:58:05 PM
Beautiful portriat! Taking this with an enviroment BG was perfect. His personality shows through. Your lighting, color, focus and composition is spot on. Not sure why, but love how he has a smoke in his hand. Just adds to his personality. Well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 01:27:50 PM
slightly different portrait, his expression is good

03/11/2009 12:22:09 PM

03/11/2009 01:14:13 AM
good portrait, but I find the weed to be distracting. the vignetting does nothing for me
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Just a great portrait. Colorful, but still natural looking.
