Critique Club Review:

Technical: Focus and depth of field are good. Color, saturation and hue: Either lighting or processing has left a little bit of a green cast to the image. Notice the color of the beard, and the middle area of the forehead as examples.

Reaction: Overall I like the picture. However, I think I would have liked it a bit better with the lighting more to the side, so as to leave the subject's left eye in shadow, and made a sharper distinction between the light and dark areas. I tend to think the processing made some of the tones go green. I would have liked the photo better, had this not happened. This is an advanced editing challenge, so the extra time processing would have helped here.

I like this image alot. The only gripe I have is the slightly hidden eye on the right. I would have just liked to have it all in the shadow on the right. Just my personal tastes but I still gave it a 9. Good luck.

Great complimentary colors. Nice lighting. I like how you caught just a bit of that right eye. Really shines.

Very nice portrait, you really captured the warmth and joy of your subject. Well done! There doesn't seem to be enough of that ribbon showing to add to the photo, instead it draws the eye out of the frame some.

I love the 'green' tones and the placement of your face in the light. Great self portrait!
