Nice sharp shot. I feel the boat in the background is a little bit distracting.

Nice-definetly looks like a friendly guy. The only negative is that his neck is cut off a bit.

Nice picture. I sure wish the sail boat wasnt there, it really distracts. I do like the rest of the background there, no need to crop. It really accentuates him. Good job!

The colors are a little washed out, but he's got a nice expression. Looks like you nailed his character. Good portrait.

I don't really like the background, but I'll overlook it since I like the way you captured Sparky.

Naturally relaxed and genuine smile. Focus is good too....would like to have seen the background a little more saturated though.

The large area of background on the left is unfortunate.

I like the composition and the exposure on the face is good. The background is a little too bright.

Hello Sparky! Nice portrait. I also like how the line of the sail in the background has the same curve as his face. 7

maybe some color boosts to help bring him out more would help

the background is too over-exposed and distracting from an otherwise sharp, detailed portrait

Photo is good but the background doesn't do much for the overall look..

Just for the title I am giving a 7! It has GREAT character. It could have been a ten with a little better processing. Nice job though
