Extremely nice work here. You've really captured this guy and told us something about him - it almost doesn't need a title. Good luck in the challenge.

Fabulous portrait... not the traditional one, but just as striking, if not more.

I am not sure but I think this may have been sharpened too much. I like the expression and overall emotion of the shot

this is kind of bizarre.. the title, his expression, and that cigarette..

I like the cigarette tucked behind his ear; Very symbolic of the working man, I think. :)

There is a lot of good stuff in this shot. The expression, the creases on the face, the lighting. Some minor stuff are the specs on the black shirt, the position of the cigarette (which would have been better in a more horizontal position), and the yellowish cast.

An excellent capture of character. To me this speaks of a quiet inner strength - perhaps hard times, but always a quiet strength.
