		| | Great character shot worthy of a high score.  Perhaps a little oversharpened? |

		| | Something's happening to the skin around the eyes and nose...looks glassy? The smoke is distracting only to the point that I had to look for a moment or two to decided what was happening to the cheek, but now that I've "got it" it's okay. |

		| | Intense and nice dof. I find something distracting about the highlights - especially on his right cheek - it's hard to see where the cloth and his cheek start and stop and that just feels weird. |

		| | Was that smoke or, something cloned out of the shot on his face, just beside the cloth???? |

		| | I am a little disturbed by the strong flash. Could have been a great shot using just available light (or ever so slightly some fill flash). But here the flash is flattening the face and creating strong, unwanted reflections. |

		| | Nice image. It appears to be overly sharpened and the resulting light spots on his face are distracting. |

		| | now this could be an more awesome shot than it already is had the life been less harsh. I understand you were outside and controling the sun is hard hehe. Maybe a slightly faster shutter speed? |

		| | I bet your dissapointed theway the image has come out on the screen because its an excellent photo and the way its been reduced leaves large flat areas. I hope you still do well and I am sure you will

		| | nice subject and background. I would have avoided on-camera flash though. It really takes away from the feel. |
