5 Card Stud

Interesting concept. The red is a little too red, and the eye is unnatural looking. I don't really care for the desturation, and the expression on his face is less 'stud' and more 'One more move and you're history'. However, having said that, I think that this photo could be tweaked a little and really work the way it was intended, IMO.

Nice touch of humor. Interesting take on a common object. Lovely texture and detail. Not sure if I like the border or not, tho.

I like this one. Everything seems to work. I can almost smell the sulfur in the air.

Nice pun. I like the lighting for this one - gives it much more depth and visual impact than brighter lighting would have given.
