Wonderful face and great light. I don't think the bottom 1/3 is helping you.

Very nice exposure. Lots of details in the photo without being too busy. Great job!

One of my favourites. I love the muted colours, his pose and all of his tools around him.

I would have either cloned out, or cropped out the distracting spots on the left of the image. Otherwise, it's perfect. I especially like the negative space of the upper image and how it contrasts, yet compliments the subject. Well done!

Great dodge/burn...his hand under the table is a little distracting, though.

Now this is just whaat the challenge ordered. The environment is interesting and you have ensured that we can see that by lighting and including it in focus. the lighting here is brilliant. I know it looks casual and it might be but it is even across the whole portrait including the subject with just a stop difference. I don't know if this is going to score well but it should for it extreme technical competence. I was going to be bugged by the centreed composition but the overall effect of he image over-rode that. This deserves to be a full page illustration in a magazine article
