Beautiful shot for this challenge. I love the definition in the eye. Your model did a great job of posing for you. Pet shots can get tiring but this one is great.

Love the shot and concept. Makeup looks a little uneven on the forehead which distracts a bit. Still very nice.

Great shot. I love the framing, the expression, the dark eyes and especially the grain. Looks like an old movie star shot. My favorite so far.

Very black and white but a house doesn't do much for me as a subject.

Great use of black and white. I think I'd like the lighthouse a little more off center... maybe in the upper left hand corner to simplify and also see the end of the land on the right.

Great subject(s)! I love it that the players are white and black too. Lighting doesn't quite do it for me... I start to lose the face of the person on the left in the background and there's too much dark background visible.

Nice subject and composition. Tree seems not quite sharp and overall it feels underexposed. It needs a little more punch.

Wow! What a crazy and striking shot! I can't wait to hear the story on this one. The repeating pictures are quite interesting. The background is very striking... again... eager to hear the technical details. So my question is... is it bad to read over people's shoulders? I do it all the time on my daily bus ride and, while I don't want to be obvious, I never thought it was that bad. Help me understand if I'm part of the problem! Great shot!

I love the eyes! I wish there was a little more light on the eyes... maybe a reflector to bounce in some additoinal light to make the eyes pop a little more. Great pose by your model... tell him/her nice job!

Beautiful snow fall, nice leading lines but I wish the lines lead me to a stronger subject. I'm not quite sure what I should focus on.
