2- too grainy ... moody, but it distracts for me.

I like your bravery to make a grainy photograph - shows your artistic side.
I don't like how I tend to look up the child's nose. Nice soft eyes.

Love this portrait - the graininess, monochrome, framing, everything - the look on his face. - 8

I like the grainy feel to this...almost gives the feeling of an old family photo...nice tight crop and good contrasts

I like the expression captured. I like the grainy presentation, but its too grainy. Goes over the edge to become distracting.

A great capture of the subject's personality - something every portrait should strive to do. I like the tones and the lighting.

This photo makes me look again and again. It has a very old time charm too it. It almost looks like it was a painting of some sorts from old times. I would like to see it a bit brighter, but overall.... wonderful!

very nice detail and good pose for a young boy.
It looks a little on the grainy side I'm not sure why
Nice work

This conveys so much in both pose and expression - boredom, resigned patience, weariness... this is a lovely portrait and has a timeless feel - even without the grain it could be an old photograph of a boy who ran with his friends in the streets 20 years ago, 50 years ago, 100 years ago or more. Excellent!

Grain works for this portrait very well indeed. The low contrast sets the mood, which complements the pose. I like the tilted pose which makes a nicle balanced composition.
