directby NiallOTuamaComment: Creative and engaging. Hangs together stylistically, but I find the sign to be jarring... maybe intentionally so. But here is a portrait that goes way beyond someone just standing before a camera, and I've spent a good amount of time pondering it, enjoyably so. |

Pretend it isn't happening.by RKTComment: We can all identify with this. While the hands over the face certainly convey the feeling, I even more appreciate the blurring and dissolution everywhere else, an undertone that supports the obvious. His hands are very handsomely presented. Nice image.
(I had thought of doing a similar pose, entitling it "News at 7.") |

DPchallenge-5by Mariano1127Comment: She seems to be a reluctant bride. It's this tension that animates the image. Her skin appears a bit blotchy, maybe due to the lighting, shadows thrown from the tulle. While interesting, I also find it disturbing. |

Sirenby tangueraComment: Very nice image. She seems engaged and connected to the world, while still insisting on a bit of reserve. I get the latter from the placement of her hand, but am afraid I'm being too much of a pop psychologist. I like how well she fills the frame and the kindness in her eyes. |

Mby colorcarnivalComment: A straightforward portrait. I like the high key appearance of the upper half, which seems to float above the more solid coat and turtleneck. It's a very interesting effect. Good image. |

Bathing. Do Not Disturb.by LuciemacComment: Anything but a cat, this would evoke baffling wonderment. A cat, par for the course. Lots of intensity here, in the eyes and the startling whiskers. Nice, compact portrait. |

Bacon and egg roll $5.00by PompouspeteComment: Kind of a portrait within a portrait. Nice juxtaposition of the snarling tiger and the grinning staff. However busy this image is, and that's a part of its charm, the people are where the eye lands, and is rewarded. A happy image . |

gentleman insideby LevTComment: His face and hands express deep experience. The foreground and background are casual and unpretentious, as he is too. Every crease and crag is lovingly presented. I like this quietly dynamic portrait.
A question about the title -- why wouldn't he be a gentleman inside? Clothing and character needn't be at odds. |

Bear and friendsby mitalapoComment: A wonderful family portrait. He's tired, relaxed and tender, the baby is ready for action. The background suggests night, perhaps explaining the sleepy impression I get. Beautiful, liquid eyes. A casual, winning heirloom. |

Rockin itby BenstedComment: Full of life, her enjoyment gushes right off the page (or, as here, the screen). I like the rather high key exposure, it underscores the overall playfulness of the scene. Delightful image. |
