A well posed and composed portrait with a good level of detail in both the shadow and highlight areas. The sepia effect isn't entirely to my taste; on a personal level, I suspect I might prefer a somewhat more muted tone.
Wow! Really nice portrait shot. He looks a cool cowboy with the shades (and not someone to mess with) by his stern expression. Good composition, lighting and tonal values. Good luck in the challenge. 10
great conversion and choice of sepia, great details, great exposure. Initially I found the lasso in the background distracting. The longer I look at your picture, the more I find that it brings the model into an enviroment and surrounding.
I like the tones, but more so am I impressed at the reflection in the glasses, and your ability to hide yourself in them. The rope-looking bokeh only helps this photo also.
I like this - from the tones to the reflections in the glasses and what looks like a rope in the background. In my opinion, it's well composed, well presented.
