I am curious as to what this is. Is it a sculpture or a mask of sorts? I like the lighting on it.

This picture makes me wish I was a paying member just so I could vote. :( At least I can comment... Very nice ;) I really like the leatheryness of his face. Don't know if I woulda called it 'Dignity' tho...

This is a great shot!!!
I never found out how to do this "black on black" thing but now i need to find out.
Best of luck in the challenge, i'm sure you will do well, and i look forward to seeing a ribbon under this picture in a few days time.

Interesting... hard to tell if this is an old man, or a mask. I really like it. The eyes kind of bother me, I wish I could see them more, they look so sunken and eerie. I think in this case I would have actually liked to have seen more of the left side of the face, it is almost too black, but I guess thats the challenge. Awesome texture here! -8-

neat photo, think it's just a bit too over-lit

That's a pretty good effect. It seems over exposed though because the white is REALLY white. That may have been your intent though.

Like a bottomless pitt, great magazine cover. Right to the point and nothing to fault. Great image.

light is very high. you should be using smaller aperture and higher shutter speed, because bottom is blown away.
