Nice detail. She seems so solemn and no gleam in her eye. :( Seems like this shot could use a slight boost in contrast. JMO. Good luck in the challenge.

Sorry, but doesn't seem much like a portrait photo to me. No face, distant subject... Little on the blurry side also. JMO of course. Good luck.

He's almost camoflauged against that background. :D

Interesting lighting for this setting. Certainly isolates the subject nicely. Good detail overall, and it's interesting to look at. Good luck in the challenge.

This seems a little too "in your face" extreme. Looks off also not having a catchlight in the right (subjects left) eye. JMO of course. Good luck.

Appears to be a pretty young lady, but we can't see her in this photo. The scarf/hat is cute, but obstructing the view. Could stand to apply some curves/levels adjustments to balance this out a little. Seems underexposed and needing some additional contrast. All JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

This is a sharp, engaging image. I like the way you've composed this. The slight angle of the head. Looking a little over his shoulder. Not sure about the sword (? actually looks more like a fencing blade perhaps ?) as it's taking me away from the person, but without it this photo would have an entirely different feel. Hmmm. Anyway, well done overall. Good luck in the challenge.

Were you hiding that camera in the department store? Looks like it. :D This is cute. I wish it had a little better quality on the technical side. It's a little soft and grainy. Very, very cute however. Did I already mention that? :) Good luck in the challenge.

Somebody knows what they're doing. :D THIS is a portrait. Wonderful detail. This has been well thought out from the makeup (including a powdered nose) to the balanced lighting. Congrats on a job well done.
