I missed voting on this challenge, but this would have scored high marks from me. The lighting is impeccable - quite surprising given the venue. You've got great eyes that seem to say a lot (and you captured them well). Good work. It won't be long before we see you on the front page again in ribbon territory.

Yes, the sofa has a pattern. But, this image is about the person. (2)

To me this is simply a photo of a guy - not much ot the pattern of the sofa. Centered directly in the middle is boring.

Pattern in the sofa, but the model is more of the subject.

This would be a good self portrait, but you sorta take away from the pattern grabbing our attention.

Subject draws away from the pull of the eye to the pattern for me.

Nice portrait, but I'm guessing you're getting hammered for not meeting the challenge.
