LIghting is just a touch harsh here, making the face a little flatter than I would normally like. You did a great job of capturing his personality though. Looks like a fun loving individual!

This is a great shot, the background contrasts perfectly with the hair and the shirt, (I like that shirt, by the way :) ) The background also brings out the beautiful blue eye. The lighting is wonderful not too harsh. Over all a wonderful portrait.

What an interesting frame that reflection creates... very strong graphically. Unfortunately, for me, the content just isn't arresting enough to make this a winner though the reflection is appealing.

As a native Clevelander myself, you automatically have an edge. None-the-less, this is one of the pretiest shots of this bridge that I have seen. The soft vs the sharp is a neat contrast. I am not sure that I would have cropped it a little tighter. . . but that is only my preference. The very best of luck to you. What part of Cleveland are you from or were you just visiting?

Looks like a friendly guy who won't even hurt his brother if he doesn't win a ribbon :)

Nice lighting, focus and background.
