 A really nice guy on a market in Lübeck devoted to the Middle Ages. His arrows and bows are all handcrafted out of yew and olive wood. Great art!

Fantastic subject: so unique.If I had to offer any "what I would have done" comment, I think it would be that a tighter crop on the right might have been a better option... I know that you would have had to sacrifice the gorgeous Celtic Knot design on the fabric then, but that would have made the fletcher a wee bit more Primary. Hmm...but I like it as it is too. 9

I love the lighting and the b&w. Excellent shot. Back to bump you up to 9.

Nice 1st impression :: Don't like that the framing cuts off his feet - especially with nothing gained on top :: Image has a crispness that's quite nice, but the whites are blown to the point of detracting overall :: Great subject choice <<8>>

He feels a little crowded on the left. Really like the b&w conversion - gives us the sense of an earlier time. A white border would really add to that, I think. Nice job burning in the corners to shrink the space.

what an almost surreal image. Nice light.

Severe vignetting is a bit bothersome, but otherwise, I like this one. 6.

I like how the lighting is directed right at the fletchings. It's the first thing my eyes are drawn to.

I love the fact that it's a black and white image. Nice contrast and the lighting was great.

Wonderful image! Great feel to it and the b&w treatment is great. I really like that he is not looking at the camera. For some reason if he had been I think some of the strength would have been lost. 8 for now but I might be back. Well done.
