Chaotic and very busy. An original presentation.

terrific tonality and angle - however, subject too centered for me and the two blurred guys then become a distraction.

I think the tilt angle works here - it does not appear to be "forced." Nice capture of a moment.

Very different and unigue - a solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it has significant impact being richly colored with excellant detail. This image would have worked as a black and white as well. A perfect demonstration of the power of properly controlled light and focus. Well done.

The two blobs on each side in the foreground don't work good as a frame, they are distracting to t me.

I like the way in which you roughened his skin to enhance imperfections. Interesting angle, too.
