Fantastic portrait! (why didn't I see it before?!). The only thing I'd change is to remove the eye color. This great portrait doesn't need this cheap trick of selective desauration to hold viewer's attention.

Wow! I can't believe this had no favorites. It is an amazing portrait with a face that tells many stories! Nice job!

Nice high contrast portrait. Would've like to see the man tilt his face down and look straight in the camera for this one.

I really like this shot. The top of his head almost blends in with the background to much. perhaps a bit higher with your angle would eliminate that.

Would have been a 10 if not for the colored irises, still, a 9!

not a pretty image but a great photo, alot of emotion in this image and b&w helps it.

An interesting subject, but I do not care for the angle of the shot. I also wish he was against a solid color background that was a different color than his skin. I'm not sure the blue tones work for me here.

I think a darker background would really emphasix the great character that shows in this picture.

It took me a moment to notice the blue eyes in this shot....there's so much character exuding from this man. Not a typical portrait, but I really like it.

A bit more context/setting would really make this portrait tell a story.

Reminds me of a Chuck Close portrait. Nicely done.

This has an almost surreal sense. Great texture to his skin. The centering of his face makes it more powerful.
