Did you enter this picture solely for the sake of entering the contest? Or did you think that saying touch in the title constituted an acceptable entry?
I love the crop and the composition, (and of course the smile!). It seems a bit too contrasty though. Apparently sunlight, it is a little too harsh...blowout of the hat and cheek and a little too dark across the face. I bet it's a favorite of the models though as it seem to really show him. Good job.
My personal preferences are to more literal interpretations of the challenge subjects. If I had this image without the title, I would have guessed you were saying something about scratchy beards or something. Nice cropping and focus though. Also picked up the details in the dark areas pretty well. Good luck with the challenge.
The photo doesn't seems to be specially exceptionnal.
However, you achieved interaction with your viewer. I really raised my hand, wanting to touch this face.
I do not understand how, but you did it!
