Nice placement on the challenge. Thought your contrast was really good, and the subject was fascinating.

A highly interesting character study with beard and smoke flowing freely. Bump.

I wish there was some light defining the shadow side and punch up the smoke against the dark, but on the whole it is a very nice shot. I particularly like the skin texture behind the sunglasses.

wish the whites were just a hair whiter. Love the character and the presentation. He owns the frame.

This is a great photo, but leaving the photo untitled in this case was such a waste. How about "Badass", "Bald Bart", "Custer Grizzley", "Mac", "Sonny Dey", "Ol' Sunshine Himself", "Dr. Butter", "Gunz McMurphy", "Straight Shooter", "T-Rex", etc. Still a good photo, and titles by no way affect my vote, but have some fun with shots like this.

Cool dude! I like the lighting. Is that a paper clip on his collar?

I would have liked to see the man moved just a tad to the left....but I like this, good depth and use of lighting, great character, and nice use of square crop.

Great light and love the smoke. Classic. Wonder how he would look without glasses.

Nice dark portrait. Looks rough like the subject. THe B&W really brings out the details in the beard and wrinkles in the face.

Bet he likes ZZTop... Good lighting.

Great lighting, great personality. The little whisp of smoke combined with such a fantastic character makes for a superbly interesting shot. I could look at this all day - it makes you want to ask the subject about himself. 10
