I really hope this was a controlled burn and not someone's home.
Beautiful capture, though

Wow, that's pretty intense! Nice capture. I don't like that the flames are cropped out at the top, but I won't count it against you, those flames were probably pretty high!

Hot!

Technicals are terrific. I like the composition as a whole. This is one time where I feel the eyes are incorrect as they neither are engaged with the viewer or the enivornment as such it kind of takes you out of the moment. While I like the simple expression, I think it kind of takes aways from the moment.

I also gave it a 5, and I remember why. There was something about his stance and his smile that made it LOOK a bit off to me, almost as if it were a posed picture. His expression just didn't seem to fit with the scene ... burning building in the background and he's sitting there posing for GQ. That was my true emotional response to the image ... whether posed or not really doesn't matter to me, its just that he appeared so out of context with his surroundings that I didn't like it. You'll have to be the judge as to whether that's a reaction to the photo or your subject. ;>P

I feel like I'm in a confessional. I gave this wonderful portrait a 5. What was I thinking.
I guess I didn't like the title, sorry. :(
