Good clarity. I like the subtle rosy hue. Your lighting is pretty good, although there's a little bit of shine that seems out of place on the upper lip, but it's not major, and this is basic editing after all.

Patient Father

I love a picture that makes me look around to see what's there. This does that very well while still pulling me back into the subject.
The rope first caught my attention. It makes me wonder if there's usually a line, or are we perhaps to understand that nowadays no one comes?
The reflection in the glass door has me wondering if that's someone waiting in the distance, or is it perhaps a lonely icon, waiting, like the patient Father, for someone.
Being a lifelong protestant, I know I'm missing much richness here. Bt htis is still a wonderful and interesting peek into the church.
Nicely done.

Unprofessional

Kinda depends on the profession, don't ya think?
A little soft on the focus, but otherwise a good image that depicts a character. Many voters won't like the shadow. But I think it's appropriate for this shot.

Off the Wall

Good angle and use of a vanishing point with the wall. Basic editing wouldn't let you soften the bright spots in the sky at upper left, which is really the only distraction I see here. Nice focus on the foreground/first model.

Stressed

Comment:
Good expression. Definitely looks stressed, but wit ha nice comic flare. only complaint would be that it's a little too bright in the left background - but a minor point. Nice shot.

Those are some unique specs. Good angle and good choice of B&W. Contrast is a little high, but then you may have wanted that considering the title.

This one is very well done. Not sure how the voters will take it, but I'll bet you don't care. The lighting and hi-lights along with the crazy frames and crazier eyes tell an exciting story. Nicely done.

and then the photographer lost control of the model.....

Good idea and cute model. Needs a little more light on his face given the brightly lit background.

Great shot. I'd love to get the story behind this. I hope you have something in your notes at the end of the challenge.
