Lighting: good, but may be a bit harsh.
Pose: conveys the emotion well, but not sure it fits a portrait
Background: good. |

Yes, he does look very worried. I wonder if this is a candid moment caught or posed? Very well done overall but the light seems a bit harsh, the shadow on his nose is a bit distracting and his lips look off for some reason, the color doesn't look quite right, almost too pink. The crop is well done though I would have liked to seen the whole chin to balance it out a bit more. A 5 |

This is not what I usually think of when I see the word portrait. His expression is rather disheartening and makes me wonder what stress is going on in his world. Your lighting looks to be a tad bit harsh. If some of your light came more from the side, this would soften it up a touch and help even out the skin tones.

Not your usual subject for a portrait, but you certainly convey the idea well enough. |

Great focus and detail. Filling the frame is important in portraits, and you've certainly done that. The worried expression creates an emotive response in the viewer. :o) |

This doesnt really portray a studio shot in my opinion. The crop is extremely tight. I would have zoomed out a bit, to include at the least, the rest of his head and probably his shoulders. |

I think the crop here is too "in your face." There also appears to be a slight color cast. |

Good expression and lighting. Unusual but effective composition. |

I would've done some cloning and dodging on his face to get rid of some imperfections. |

This looks more like a quick grab shot rather than a formal portrait. Perhaps it's cropped a little tight as well. |

Nice close shot. A little less harsh lighting or diffusing it a bit would make this stand out more. Great focus. |

You have made the same mistake that I have: Too tight crop. |

More full-head would be more like a portrait. |

what's bothering him? (an annoying parent with a camera?). Nice shot, but the crop is a bit to tight. |

Great close up shot, good lighting and good natural expression. Well done. |

Could be a bit more sharp, remove the white on the lower left and the mole on his forehead. I love your lighting and his expression. 8~ |
