I really like your shot here. I don't think it is your best one that you took for the D-Day collection though with the smoke it does have a real 30/40's feel. I would have tried for a darker background but with the smoke that might be slightly hard.
First impression: B&W is perfect for this photo considering the re-enactment and the smoke creates a leading line to the mans face. Nicely done.
Suggested improvement: I think maybe a more landscape crop could work better here. It would give some space and add a sense of distance to where the man is looking. (if that makes any sense)
Interesting subject, spot on composition and a nicely detailed image. For me, I think I'd perhaps like a 'touch' more contrast but that's just a matter of taste.
Might you be able to add the lens information too? I've been really looking forward to comparing different lenses and how people use them for portrait work. Many thanks.
great composition, and an interesting way to use the smoke to enhance the photos meaning. Good jobs! Can't wait to see more of your work in the coming month!
lol looks like a actor in a war reenactment or a scene from a 60's biker movie. great shot, oh and thanks for the unexpected comment on an older shot the other day!
Guy looks very old school, whether WWII or Russian (as suggested by others) or something else I don't know. Like how the smoke fades/blurs away into the distance.
