 My brother, Chris.

The dramatic lighting and conversion are unusual for me. It's a style I admire, but haven't had much opportunity to shoot. My tough guy brother visiting for three weeks gave me this chance to experiment. I'm especially looking forward to the feedback since this a new direction for me.

I think this portrait could have used just a touch of fill light on the right side. JMHO.

I really like how half of the face is shrouded in shadow. Very cool looking. Lots of nice contrast without blowing out the highlighs. Nice sharpness around the eye.

Nice half face with the light and shadow. I like the harshness of the light. Good use of filter. 7
