Love the detail in the eye, but I'm not sure about the close crop - wish I could see the full face.

So far I've rated 671 of 683 images. There have been many exceptional ones I've seen, but this is my favorite so far. It makes me feel. Whoever you are, I can't wait to look at your portfolio. This is amazing.

The half face portrait doesn't do much for me. I like close up portraits and I thing this was an opportunity missed

nice capture. I think I would have prefered a deeper DOF. Very nice textures in the skin and great clarity in the eye.

Title doesn't work for me - kind of pretentious for a less than pretentious person. But that doesn't really matter. Would have liked to see a very thin border but that doesn't really matter either. The focus and DOF of this image are perfect. The conversion to black and white extremely well done - tonal range excellent. Like the fact that you left in the noise - way too many images in this challenge are neat-imaged to death. This one is refreshing in its simplicity, it straight forward presentation of the person and his personality. 10 - good luck in the challenge.
