Composition (content) The screen door adds a very interesting touch to this photo. It makes it look like a painting on a very rough kind of canvas. Therefore it is a bit of a shame that it is ripped, that gives away that it is a screen.
Good pose and frame positioning for a full frontal portrait.
The grey toning works very well and the stripes on the shirt match with the hair/face tones and the frame. All grey would have been a bit boring, making the torso an unnecassary element.
Nice lighting, only improvement could be a reflector beneath to fill in the area under the chin. On the other hand the way it is now it is in balance with the facial expression.
Background Dark and empty, doesn't take the attention from the foreground and gives enough contrast for the subject.
Camera Work (Technical) Good exposure and use of aperture. A wider aperture might have blurred either the screen or the background or cause a focus problem.
Screen adds pleasent softness.
This gets the vote for the most impressive shot of the week. Its great. The black and white was an excellent choice. The expression on his face, the eyes, the little hole in the screen. Great work. 10
This gives a really neat effect to the photo. It makes it look like it is printed on canvas. Hate the 2 little holes in your screen. Bet you didn't know they were there until you took the photo. This is a really neat, good photo. Great intuition and way to color outside the lines. I like it.
lol, looks like something from the night of the living dead. Jjust kidding; he looks annoyed by your camera, which is just great. Kids are too cute. Good job. Jacko. 9
Nice shot. I love the expression on his face. The screen adds a nice texture to this BW shot. If the screen had not been damaged, it would have looked like an oil painting on a textured canvas.
