i came up wiht this idea about 6 hours before the challenge.. took couple of shots and i was happy with the third one...i tried to make it high contrast image hence adding to the overall dramatic effect.. i am very happy with this shot.. it is going to be fun monitoring its progress...enjoy..

What's appealing is the colors of the shirt, the chain, and the arms, and even the stark contrast to the jeans. Background lighting is uneven left to right, but not distracting. Good shot. 7
I think I know whose entry this is...and it's just as cool as others he (or she) has shot. I like the tones and the feel of this picture. Very masculine.

Liked: Great model, great pose, Colors (orange and blue really go together well,) and obvious effort of model is captured well.
Would have preferred: I would have liked more lighting to diffuse shadow across chest, a shirt which offered greater contrast to the chain, and perhaps more of the shoulders. Also the white balance appears off on the forearms.
A 7.

One of only a few images that included human shapes. Composition is very nice - with the smallish blue base. Image is pretty dynamic but I'm thinking the lighting could have heped you more.
Great job - the dirty hands add to the composition. A white shirt rubbed with rust would have been another nice idea and would have added contrasted a little more with the chain. Overall, good score!
