Excellent image. Wonderful shapes with the hand and hat, lovely textures with the skin and jacket. The crop is perfect.

Terrific image. A very nice use of areas of subtle over-exposure. This is just the kind of b&w portraiture that I like. Well done!

Looks a little over exposed you may have intended it that way.

i'd be interested to see the aperature settings for this shot. the hand seems more in focus than the eyes. still i love this shot,the grain and his expression and the b&w all work together quite well. /8

composition and emotion are a 10, clarity and focus are a 6, I'll give you 8 because it draws me in.
