Emotive capture! I'm guessing DPC won't really like it: little bit blurry, grainy. I really like it though. The emotion is very strong, the eye speaks deeply, the title fits into it all. Great job!
I really like the way you have processed this, i'm worried some purists may get upset! but its a brilliant photo, & fits the spirit of the challenge excellently
I like this shot..the extreme close-up, the focus is soft and fits this portrait; there is a graininess to it that works well, the hat was an excellent touch.
This is quite a nice "old-time" photograph, and the expression is wonderful. I applaud your courage in submitting a photograph of this type into the DPC "NeatImage wins Ribbons!" world. The subtle intensity in this photo plays well with your title, but it would work just as well with an "untitled", as the mood shines through, and one can't help but imagine what this man is thinking. Great job.. one of the better photos I've seen. Good luck staying out of the 4s.
I think the rough, slightly mottled texture of this photo suits it very well. Nice tigh framing. Good idea with the hat too. I get the feeling he's sitting on a horse ready for a shootout. [10]
This is very dramatic. I think your title compliments the picture really well, and so do the cepia tones! I'm not crazy about that grainy finish, but the composition is so strong and the look on his face conveys your emotion so well. 8
Interesting choice of editing. This image is very cold, and very still. Maybe very "solid" would be a better choice of words. The almost monochromatic tone to his image give it that stone like feel. Almost like a head stone. <6>
