Great portrait - lots of character and fine detail;-)Voting Center, 26.08.2006 at 14:39h
Olivier Vanbiervliet, 26.08.2006 at 14:39h
I think the composition could be better: more space on our left side and less on our right side, and the pink shirt could be desaturated... but... the face is perfect, sharpness, contrast, emotion in the eyes...PRO
Fredrick Adam, 26.08.2006 at 14:39h
The stern gaze and creases in his face tell quite a story... I like it.Pro
Patrick Parenteau, 26.08.2006 at 14:39h
Excellent angle and detail. I also agree with Oliver's comments as the pink shirt is a distraction, but no worries, this is still a Pro shot.Paul Grimshaw, 26.08.2006 at 14:39h
I agree with Olivier.. but even though I like the shot I vote Contra because, like Olivier and some others, I see the flaws and therefore cannot hold it up as an exceptional image or the Gallery ceases to be a Gallery of exceptional images, if it hasn't already. Regards, Paul.Ruud van der Lubben, 26.08.2006 at 14:39h
Aye ! Oliver said many true things. For those things it can not be pro.I appreciate the picture yes. But the Gallery may not be called a gallery if pictures with so many "fails" still are voted in.
Andy Pomplun, 26.08.2006 at 14:39h
well I agree with Oliver too, but I totally agree. So I also come to a Pro. There has been worse pictures getting a pro, so this one should too. Here it is just hard since it is such a good photo not to mention what could have been done to make it even better.... ;)Dark Sides, 26.08.2006 at 14:39h
a wonderful living pic...i like it very much...this face are telling million storys.
congratulations to the photograph.

Well of course there are the usual detractors. For anyone to say this has flaws, needs to re-examine where they are coming from.The majority always prevails, sometimes despite the efforts of a few, to name but two, who sometimes cannot distinguish a landscspe from a Gallery Photo.
Very disappointed with one, not surprised at all by the other.
PRO.

Hii, nice portrait.Susi Lawson Susi, 26.08.2006 at 17:26h
Thanks so much for this gallery acceptance! I actually thought the pink shirt added to the image (otherwise I know how to get rid of it:)..I liked the pink against the harshness of his face. But I don't mind criticism!Pop Photography magazine called me recently and said this would be in their October issue, so I am very pleased with that recognition as well. Thanks to all who voted Pro (and for all comments) Much appreciation!
Paul Grimshaw, 26.08.2006 at 17:37h
Congrats Susi ... I didn't mind the pink .. mainly just the small point about the composition and otherwise a very nice shot with a great face. Regards, Paul.Susi Lawson Susi, 26.08.2006 at 19:05h
Thanks Paul, I wanted to include his cowboy hat , hence the space on he right,which maybe cannot be seen on all monitors.Igor Flasz, 26.08.2006 at 19:29h

It is amazing how many times some people get it wrong!! Why not just look at the pic, but do not disect it like a biology lesson.Photography is not an a exact science! The rules need to be broken, and the best shots are usually, to most of us, when the rules are not there.
Perhaps there is a tinge of jealousy here.
Robert Riley, 29.08.2006 at 3:36h
I would ask Paul to tell us where the 'flaws' are!Susi Lawson Susi, 29.08.2006 at 15:07h
Thank you Robert :) Yes, I shoot from the hip (or the heart) rarely from the head and my motivation is one of creative expression and hopefully an image that evokes a connection with the viewer .. I thought this man had an amazing face and I wanted to capture it and share it with others who may also 'see' the reason that I took the picture ..to share that vision. I think most artist/photographers , such as yourself, will intuitively understand this.Thanks again for taking the time to comment.

Just a fabulous portrait. The mood is summed up by one of the comments below - ie. you can just read the book of life on the face of this man;-)
