| I like it. In my opinion, there's not too much technically wrong, because contrast and light is excellent, and the composition complements your form well, plus the environment is interesting. As far as your posture goes, maybe too much leg/knee - it may be what the viewer is confronted with on first view, but your face is perfectly positioned as the most important element I think, and you've got a great expression on your face. For a full body shot, I think your foot is required. :) |

| Fill the frame dude. Your mug is way more interesting than the rocks - as nice as they are. Leave in the foot, or crop the lower body much more severely in the interest of showing more face. Your left hand looks awkward the way it's hanging there too. Put something in your hand to give it a reason to be there. A flower, a rock-hammer, a lens cap, whatever. |

| I think it's a great shot. The tone, and expression and your background. Composition is pretty good but I would leave the foot in as well and have less spce at the top so for me tilting the camera down would have nailed this shot totally but I do still like it anyway it has a nice relaxed feel to it. |

| Great photo, and I really like the shading here. The jeans and the rocks have a similar texture, and it kinda makes you appear as one with the environment. Heres a rule of thumb that i try to stick to with cropping/composition: Never cut a person off at a joint (e.g ankle, wrist, elbow etc.). It normally gives the viewer an awkward feeling. This might explain the comments on the foot? Anyway, you have a great shot here, and this foot thing is pretty minute. Cheers! |

| I have to say I agree with them…even though it may not “disturb” me…I would like to see the other foot. I do like how you left a lot of negative space at the top that brings in more of the white from the rock and some leaves…overall great B&W image…great job. |

| I feel the saem way - the missing foot disturbs me for some reason. I otherwise love the image. Wonderful b/w study - great textures. |

| I really want to see your other foot. Don't know why. The comp is good and the B&W works well with the dark clothes and stone. Nice job. |
