8 - Like this. Criticism; difficult I imagine given the 'placement' of the subject and the 'depth of field', however I would like to see the 'emperor' more vivid, with more detail in the texture, although I realize you may lose the 'profile effect' in doing so. Perhaps a different crop too, depending what is above 'his forehead'.
Great photo the colours in the back look a bit washed but I dont see anything you could have done to stop it. Im not sure at the moment 9 or 10 ahhh ok I have decided 10 but might i suggest some spot cream for his chin some nasty black heads there.
I'm confused by your image. The foreground element is in focus, but the shadow cast by that ridge in the background appears to me to have a brow ridge, a "Roman" nose, and a jaw that is gaping in surpriseor joviality. The texture in the mountainside also appears to give it an eye!
