OMG! DQed! Looks like the AM/PM was screwed up.

What a shame. This is a great photo.

Nice candid. Hat is a little sharper than the eyes, but still a wonderful grab. Nice DOF. In spite of f2, still looks like the car competes a little with the subject. Very nice!

This is candid ok! Beautiful portrayal but why black and white? I am sure it would have much more in colour. (That is simply my opinion) Good luck though, it is a real good picture.

Whoa! That is on intense looking dude! I love this as a candid street photo. That face really draws you in and makes you wonder what's going on with him.

The intensity and drama is very evident in this image and a intriguing story could very well be written about this person's life and times. Crisp and sharp with no technical issues to nit pick, the artistic impact of this image is outstanding. A very competant and effective piece of photo journalism, this image should place well into the top ten if not a ribbon winner. This viewer struggled with rating this a nine or ten because of the slightly over done whites on the shoulder, but after review, changed the rating from nine to a 10 because of it's visceral impact. Well done.
