Thanks glad2badad,

I wasn't aware of that!

Pretty nice finish with this overall. Lucky you weren't asked for validation as 'dodge and burn' aren't allowed in the 'Basic Editing' ruleset.

This would have made a great "Environmental Portrait" or "Self Portrait". I understand where you're going with this. Feels like it should be titled "Boxer" as "Boxing Match" implies a pair of boxers. Just an observation. I really like the photo. Lighting is very nice. Great focus and details. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Good use of light.

Perfect light, has the hallmark of Lárus written all over..

Nicely lit portrait.

Scary guy :)I wish this was more zoomed in. Good idea!

Nice expression and cool lighting.
Some wrinkles in the background though, eh?

Love it, even though it is not too unique. Great photo though

Very nice image. Strong use of light and great detail on the eye. Bumping up to 8.

I like the lighting

Hmmm this guy really is spoiling for a fight. I really like the way half of his face is lit. It makes the shot that much more interesting. I find myself concentrating on the darker side, trying to look into his eye. It also reminds me of the whole Good and bad, Ying & Yang thing. My favourite so far. 8 from me
