 I know i know..I shoulda flipped the collar. I already had shot this in the studio and kinda force-fit it into the challenge. Most peoples comments on studio setting, eyes and collar was spot on.

flipping the collar of the jacked up would have helped.

Nice photo and a good idea. Very sharp & clean. IMO the white backdrop takes something away from the pic...seems like it should be dark or a nightime cityscape to suit the character.

A touch of whimsy to go with the mystery. I like how bright his green eyes are and how you put him over on the right. Minor nitpick is I would've liked to have seen his entire hat. 6.

I see - green eyes are magical and mysterious. It's a nice clean image. 8.

Nice pose, all around good with a secret feel. He looks a little smirky but good job.

Iconic. I thought of a similar shot, but I don't have any props like this. ;) Nice composition, lighting and PP. 8

great lighting and composition...I just wonder if it would have been better if the jacket was slightly higher so you could just see the eyes...as it is it looks a little too posed and lacking in mystery...but great work and good for this challenge

the hat shouldn't be cropped, green of eyes looks artificial
