Cute, but man are you going to get blasted for an inanimate object as a portrait subject! :D Good luck.

I like the expression and posturing of 'Ben'. The photo is a little bit on the soft side, which takes away from it some. Personally, I think the lighting could be a little stronger yet. All JMO of course. :D Good luck in the challenge.

Portrait of Past and Present --> (Horses and Cars)

Hurting for models were you? :D I'm thinking you're probably going to get hammered on this one as most people think of portraits as a person shot, sometimes pets. Additionally, having to write a lengthy descriptive title is many times frowned upon with the believe that your photo should do most of the talking. All JMO of course. As for this image, it's composed ok and you have a good tonal range of B/W overall. The lens flare upper-left is distracting. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

A little bit too grainy and blurry to come across strong enough for a good portrait IMO. Her eyes, looking away, is too much (the angle I mean). Anyway...good luck in the challenge.

Very interesting approach. I like this. Too bad the 'Dell' logo sits so low on the laptop, would have been a little stronger composition if the laptop only took up the lower third instead of half. Nonetheless, nice work. Good luck in the challenge.

I like this. The reflection in her eyes at first seems strange until it registers mentally what it actually is. :D Great clarity and detail. Good luck in the challenge.
