I really like this on a technical level. In that way, it's perfect. However, for me (and it might just be me :-), the nostrils and underside of the upper lip distracts me from an otherwise really nice image. I like the way the guy's (you?) eyes show such ecstacy at the rain. I like blue color of the rain, and the skin tones are perfect.
very nice. i like the waterfall effect of this. i know this has got to be staged because rain doesn't fall in buckets like that or at least rain that i've seen. 8
verry nice photo, I like it. the only comment i have is that the water falls a bit oblique to the right si I think the composition would be alot better if the head was more tilted to the left. I think it would be more dinamic like that but that's just my thought. Verry nice!
Lovely, tactile image. The water looks seriously wet (not the case in many entries). The expression on his face is fabulous; he's just about wallowing in the rain! 8
Love this. I'd like to see more of the background on at least one side of his face, though. Great coloration and detail. Despite my earlier comments, I'm still giving it an 8.
REally clear image. Detail of water is really awesome on the face as well as falling on the face. Don't like too much the stubble on the face. Too bad it wasn't all grown in. That would have topped this photo from a 9 to a 10
Great, great image. There's a fair amount of noise in the rain drops, but other than that, this is a technically amazing image with excellent clarity and focus that works great for this challenge. Very nicely done.
I really like this shot, but I think I would like it better if I could see more of the person and the location. By just focusing so much of the shot on the face, it looks more like a morning shower, not rain. What you have here is very well done though, IMO.
