Decent portrait. I think I'd prefer it if it was all greyscale, rather than including the red.

Needs more contrast, I think.

I think it is a bit dark. The whites of the eyes at least could be brighter and keep the dark effect, if that is what you are after.

Beautiful portrait. Did you consider having the crop just touch the top of his cap (like it touches his coat on both sides)? Just a thought.

Very nice textures, good composition. The edges of the hat look a little sloppy and areas seem to be in grayscale while others are in color, but overall, a good shot.

A striking pose with good colour but for me the background lets it down thoe patterns are competing for attention. Good luck

Very well done. The contrast of the red against the rest of the image creates a nice focal point. 8

I really like this photo, and the title caps it (no pun intended). :-)

Great shot. Has a Goodman feel to it. Very very nice. Bumping up to 9.

I would have loved to have seen a little more contrast in the grey areas. Otherwise a great shot.
