Haha, great job!!!! I am so glad you did so well! It's funny how many people said your should be in color when it did so much better in B/W! :) I love it in B/W, nice work!

great pic but it begs for color

Love the tones but cropped a bit too tight on the top. from my perspective.

Perfect subject! Just wondering how colorfull was it, but B&W also looks perfect for this shoot. 9

This man seems to have had a long run of unfortunate luck. Seems he has collected trophies of slices of his life and put them on his head as reminders. Excellent tonal balance and contrast. Seems a little bit oversharpened. 8

Really stunning shot that shows a lot of depth character - one of my favorites in the challenge. Shame another person took such a similar photo, but that can't lower the score for such an excellent shot. Great job!

What a great character for a subject. I would crop a bit tighter on the face and headress(?)...such great lines there. Perhaps a tad less contrast as well.

Very good. Lighting is nearly perfect, contrast is exceptional, great expression you captured here. Cutting the top of the hat gives a sense that you can't fit this person inside a frame, very neat.

Very nice shot! Nice subject, who I'm sure has many stories to tell. Even though I love B&W, I can't help but wonder what this shot would look like in color. 10

A very extraordinary character indeed..well captured

What an amazing character. This really fits the challenge and in that it is rare. It is one of my two top choices because it fits and it is a fine portrait.

Nice b/w photo. But just looking at the photo alone, nothing extraordinary about it.
06/30/2004 11:37:59 AM
could be just a little darker in contrast

Incredible portrait, but I would have liked to see this in color. To me, there's too much detail to work well as a b+w.
