I like the image, it has a nice story to it. Love the clarity and focus, lighting is good. Nice use of black and white. I'm not sure that I get a feeling of solitude or loneliness - though I do think it fits the challenge in general. A very nice image. 7
I can see his arm. Would be better if it was a little more in focus or maybe show his hand. I like the warmth of the toning. I apologize about not having more positive things to say.
It's not good drinkin' alone you know :-) Good shot, looks like you just took a swig of that beer the second before you took the photo. The sepia is spot on (9)
Nice photo. Initially I looked and thought "what has this got to do with being alone" and then it struck me. Hope others stop and think as well. Good work.
