I'm not worthy to vote on such a nice photo...gl....10

The image quality is great, and so is the lighting. About the composition, I think more negative space to the left will helped the impact quite a bit.
Post actions
Nice use of negative space and excellent lighting and detail. One of my favorites to ribbon.
Post actions
A good study in contrast. The sheer white shirts works so well with the point upwards to the subject. The background is ideally exploited to create a pleasing negative space and a cool blending into the jacket. The focus is deftly. 7

The lighting here is beautiful. Hard enough to make it dramatic, soft enough to eliminate very harsh shadows. The negative space works well.
Post actions
This is just a really beautiful portrait, the light if warm and comfortable, nothing seems contrived.

absolutely excellent, love the lighting. 10

Excellent lighitng! Looks like it was sharpened a little too much... or it could just be me... however, still excellent!

a very moody and impressive portrait..great model too
Post actions
Fantastic, dramatic lighting for this portrait. The title fits perfectly too.

The lighting in this picture is excellent, as is composure. Technically I don’t think you could improve a thing.

Beautiful lighting... makes the shot... well done.

Lighting and sharpness are great - I really like the composition, too. The way both sides blend easily to black really seems to work well here; lovely work - this is a stunning portrait.
Post actions
Great portrait indeed. I'd have preferred a tighter crop on the right and left - still off-centre though. An incredibly natural expression and an excellent, pro quality photo.

I really like the use of light in this photo

very nice...great colors...maybe a little oversharpened but then again, probably not for this site
Post actions
Great lighting. Makes this a moving image. I also like the placement of the subject moving him to the right and his profile to the center. Excellent work.
Post actions
Good portrait, I love the collar of his shirt against the black jacket and black background, this should rank real well. - 8
Post actions
Against what you read about portraits this is a profile that really works! The light, the black background and colors really pop. I like this study. Good work.
Post actions
Fantastic lighting. Definite ribbon winner.
