This photo is absolutly perfect in every way and I am very disappionted in how it placed. I think that not many people look for realy quality in the photos. Your lighting is perfect, your framing is perfect and the subject is perfect. Superb, I with more people could see it!

This would be much better it you worked on your lighting a little. It is just to harsh and does not do "the nude" justice. A softer lights source with lots more shadow.

Awsome!!! I think many people will have trouble see how this fits the challenge. I think I can string it together. I love it.

WOW!!! I love it! Do you really need a critique, I am sure you already know it is great. The tones and contrast are perfect especially for the subject matter. I love you location and crop, it is just perfect. However I will be nit picky on a few things, mostly facial expression. You have pulled everything else together so wonderfully I can't help but wonder if you have another shot in the bunch that has the right expressions. (This is only my opinion) The guy with the glasses is perfect! The guy on the other end looks like he is mid sentence and it doesn't fit well with the other expressions. I would have liked either all of them looking or all of them doing their own thing. Having two looking at the camera and two in their own work does not work for me. I do think expression can make or break a photo, this is so well executed that I don't mind much, but I think it could have been even more wonderful. Great job!!! By the way, I don't think you need such an extensive border and think black line would look very sharp

Are you in the SCA? This certainly looks like a SCA event picture :)
As far as the picture itself goes, I like the fact that this guy is dressed in "period" clothing or garb, but he is on a cell. It is an interesting contrast. I think you did a good job of using your oncamera flash. It is not too harsh and it looks like you tried to balance the natural light and the flash. I think you could have left a little more room at the top of the head or come in a little more, but the crop now is uncomfortable because his head is right at the edge. Nice job on using you focal length and f-stop to get that background blurry. I wish it could have been more, but sometimes there is only so much you can do. Overall I think you did a good job capturing an interesting subject.

the eyes are way to saturated, she looks like that thing from the movie species. Not a good look for her
