Good setup for the challenge. The dirt marks on the face don't look realistic but I may be wrong. I would be very interested to see where this was taken as I have not seen a cap lamp like that before. Good lighting over his face. I really like the bloodshot eyes.

Fantastic shot. I love the sihouetting surrounded by all the steam. Well done. My father lives in NZ and has told me some about these geysers.

Excellent work. You should do more portraits as you photograph well.

Don't worry about what anybody else has said. I like it. To me a person has the beauty on the inside. You just need to look in their eyes to see that. If a person wants to do a nude study then they should. Regardless of their size, shape...or how much hair. It is just a part of the shell they were given. Why should it be classed as wrong? Keep your chin up...what you did was very brave...and I can guarantee you that this image is very pleasing to the eye. I have seen some horrid nudes and this certainly isn't in that category. But regardless....you can at least say that you have tried something new....the others can't.

You need to do more images like this. They are very powerful.

Awesome image. I was very surprised by the placing of this image. I was sure it would be top ten. Well done anyways.

Awesome image. The grain and the partly saturated colours really make this image. The layout of the people finish it off nicely.
