CC Hello SharQ
Fits The Challenge-Timely, and yes it fits the challenge IMHO.
Composition-I could nit pick the top of his head is gone, but really it's so minor.
Background-Perfect
Digital Processing-clear/clean/crisp
My Opinion->SNIP>jmsetzler 'great shot... looks like a time magazine cover photo' He's so right it really does. Well done photo.

What a COOL PICTURE!! I love it! But it doesn't really convey despair.

Excellent photograph! The best touch to this photograph for me was the wedding ring, I'm glad you got in in the photo. My only comment is that he is a little crowded on the left side of the photograph. 10

Despair for Saddam, not him!

This photo is very well executed. It is REALLY nice. Unfortunatly, I really don't see any despair int his image by itself. 6/10 for that reason.

I do not see despair in this picture.

Desperate times, that's certain. Depressing shot. Nice composition.

In my opinion...a vertical shot would have captured the whole subject, but that is my preference.

Forgive me if this is a different photographer but I believe this photo belongs in the Stock Photo challenge. It is much better than the other submission. This photo doesn't reflect despair in my opinion. I do think this a very nice shot. If you had the soldier looking to the right I think it would have been better. There's too much negative space on the right for this guy to be looking forward. This picture would have gotten an 8 in the other challenge but I'm giving it a 5 here. Sorry I don't see despair.
