I voted this photo a 9. I thought the sharpness and b&w contrast are incredible... and perhaps I was influenced by the fact that I grew up with a harley-obsessed bikerchic of a mother.

Cool looking biker guy - wish only that I could see more of his face, or that the shot could've been taken with a fill flash or from the other side. I know it's not always possible to get this kind of shot in the light we want! It's just to take it as best as you can when you get the chance, which is what you probably did. But the lighting would've improved my score. I really like the guy's look and casual posture.

The glare on the jacket and the shadow on the face need to be "reversed" for this to work really well. GREAT subject, just a little problem with lighting. 6

Great candid portrait, Nice B&W tones and good use of shallow DOF to seperate him from the busy background.
