I love the spontenaity and life in this image. Beautiful B&W! Nice composition and excellent tones and contrast. I would have preferred his face just a smidge lighter.

The black and white really makes this picture nice, along with the black trim. It really brings out the detail in the sbject

I really like this one. I don't know if it's my monitor, it looks like some halo effect around the model. This should score high, good luck.

That's a pretty good way of portraying a farmer, I like it. Would have been even better if the front of the farmer had been given a little more light. This is one of the rare instances where an on board flash might actually be useful.

Thank you for showing your subject in his environment. Seems a bit dark around his face, but good shot.

Interesting shot and nice black and white conversion. My issues are the plow is in focus and the farmers face is not as in focus, although it is a different take on the portrait theme. What makes me give this a 5 is his face being rather dark...5
