I must have stared at this photo over 5 or 6 times in the past year when I tried to emulate this shot on a rainy day once. I have yet to top this portrait. All those comments! A one of a kind for sure.

you know I have come back to this image time and again and the emotion it stirs within me I cant explain... there is raw energy a caged rage that is let loose and freedom pouring from the page. I'd print this and hang it on my wall .. that is how much i am moved by it.

It's a fantastic image, but I think it's been spoiled by way to much sharpening.
Post actions
Love the raindropes but one thing that I don't like is the left hand of the person becuase it lookes like it is just to sharp! but I would have voted the photo 9 :)

Great Photo. I want to join him

i woulde have tried to get this with out the dark trees in the right corner.. nice idea tho :)
Post actions
Excellent shot! Where did you get the crazy person to stand out in the rain and love every minute of it?
Post actions
Haloing from post processing is detracting from this fine shot.
Post actions
Post actions
Good idea and well captured. It looks quite natural and not posed. The rain brings in a lot of impact as well as the guy's wet hair. It is oversharpened somewhat however, especially when looking at the tell-tale oversharpen-aura around the guy's sleeve and hand on the left hand side.
Post actions
This is an excellent and fabulous happy image.
Post actions
Great expression and depth of field. Nice composition.
Post actions
Nice capture, looks like he was having fun in the rain :)
Post actions
Too bad about the sharpening halos. This image is great!
Post actions
To me, this is a nice, different take on the challenge and a good photo, as well. It does look like there's some halo effect around the subject, maybe from oversharpening a little? Other than that, very good.
Post actions
Excellent. The emotion of the pose caught me immidiately. Hoping this for a high placement.
Post actions
Love the pose, the expression. I relate to rain as "fresh", too, so that works very well. Not sure how you ended up with a bit of a green halo around the one hand, but it's a nit and not significant to me. Well done.
Post actions
How long did your poor model have to stand out there in the rain to get this shot? Well captured expression and stance that portrays a definate energy. Love the raindrops too!
Post actions
Wish I could join in ;-). Great job but looks just a little over-sharpened.
Post actions
Well done. Nicely composed.
