Hold my hand

Jono, I like your self-portrait, but you should try to use the full 800 pixel width permitted by the challenge. At the risk of telling you something you already know, there are various ways to reduce the size of an image for the web, depending on your editing software. Try searching the forums for previous discussions on this topic, and don't hesitate to ask for help. Cheers,

Harmed maybe by having no clear point of focus, but this doesn't belong way down here at 212!

Hard at work, eh? You know, I thought you had photoshopped a can of Bass Ale until Google told me there really is an Aass Pilsner!

I love this composition, but the photo is too underexposed to me, so no more than a six vote for now.

Just going through and commenting on each of the five photos that got a vote of 10 from me this challenge. Clearly the model's beauty and the professional looking "art direction" (hair, makeup, etc.) served you well, but I like how this is exposed (lit) and cropped as well.

Great portrait, beautifully captured face without overkill on the processing. The white blur behind him is a minor distraction but the rest of the image is so well done that I gave it a 10 anyway.

Amazed this didn't do better -- I was one of your 10 votes as well. Maybe voters were just tired of night-as-day shots following the recent challenge. Anyway, beautifully done.

Interesting work and my challenge favorite, I'm sorry this didn't make the front page, but I'm happy to have been one of your "10s".

PS: Just realized this was my 5,000th comment! I'm glad it was on a photo I like.

Really pretty shot, it seems almost abstract.
