nice composition and tones. I would like this more without the words on the shirt.

Interesting portrait, the foot in the foreground is a nice touch. Interesting background, but could perhaps do with more contrast with subject. Composition a bit too centred for my taste. 7

Really captures the feeling of being at school. Simple but effective. My favorite of the challenge. 10.

A credible straightforward shot with a very 'real' feel to it, technically aedequate.

I admit that the wall is not without interest, but question the need to iclude as much of it as has been done. I feel similarly about the central composition, given the restful, uneven posture and casual attire of the subject. I can imagine a more charged and less static image, if the rule of third had been considered for this picture.

I like the choice of b & w. It's less likely to be viewed as a snapshot and, instead, seasons the picture.

The choice of black and white seems to put a bit of a mood on the image, which I suppose could appropriately compliment the concentrated look on his face also. The wall background gives a nice contrast to the rest of the image. Unfortunately there isnt much detail on his face and so the shot relies a lot on his body language. It's a good shot, but I think I may have preferred it had it had some more drama, whether that be lighting, pose, or position in the frame.

Hmmm.... wondering if it would have been better in colour...

What I like most about your shot is I get the sense you are on his level when you took it, i.e. you knelt down. It works well in B&W too. Subject is convincing. Well done.

I had same idea. Good shoot.

I like this image a lot - since I am having to learn a lot about cropping I wondered if you had thought of cropping this and pulling the figure and the texture of the stones in more tightly

Nice contrast. Model does not appear to be so "posed". I think even the shirt he is wearing depicts a teen aged student. Well done.

Nice pic, it would maybe be better if the subject was off-center. Good contrast though!
