Gorgeous... the way the lighting picks out the creases on the sculpture's face is amazing. It seems full of wisdom and life. I love the black and white, and your framing.
I do NOT like your title. But this isn't about titles, it's about pictures. This is pretty well done. I'm not overwhelmed by it, but you did a great job with the lighting. I don't think the subject looks like a monster, hence my opinion of the title and I think the lighting was placed in an attempt to make him look more evil. Given a different subject, it would work very well. But who the hell am I to say? Good Luck on this well taken picture - Inspzil
funny that you named it 'monster', this is a guy i could have some sympathy for. doesn't look too monstrous, everybody has bad days. not scary. amazing photo though, you get a ten.
