A wonderful photo or a captivating subject. Great cropping and a nice shot of the subject looking out into the open space. I really like the dark background and the DOF. The lighting on his lower lip and beard is a bit harsh, and is the only bit of nitpicking I can do. One of my favorites and I shall score it accordingly.

SUCH a great photo. The title is perfect because that's exactly what I think when I look at him -- like he's got a million interesting stories to tell. I love the composition on this, and the focus is perfect. I just love the picture itself! Perffect 10.

I think the pose and background work nicely, what I think would make this even stronger is a sepia or black and white conversion. The colors don't really add the punch it needs.

Interesting looking fellow. Maybe a tighter crop or more of the face and less of the beard. Sun a bit too bright. Seems most of the focus is on his hat.

Shadow and highlight might have been used a little too much to brighten the shadow- otherwise great capture.

Something strange about the colors in the face and specially darkness around the nose... good for character image though

I must confess I nominated you for DQ. It seemed to me that you had applied selective gaussian blur, because part of the background close to the neck is sharp, whereas the rest is blurry. Where does that effect come from?
