Not sure what the title signifies..... Like the muted lighting, tones are nice. Good job.

Light, tones, detail, and a composition that works strongly. Nothing to criticise, really. Just enough light into eyes to bring out colour.

Beautiful low key portrait. Glad you can see the details in the eyes. There seems to be a slight glow to this image which looks to have been a side effect of dodging and burning, but i find it effective in contrast to the clarity and sharpness of the model's skin. Great work.

Cool portrait. I get the sense this guy likes the outdoors. Nice lighting too.

Great lighting and processing - and love the subdued tones. As far as the subject goes, then this is a decent [self?] portrait, but it doesn't tell me a lot about the person, which I think is what makes a really good portrait - just something that adds an elelment of surprise or interest. If this guy was wearing an iPod or something it would tell me at least what sort of interests he has.
