This is taken in some ruins
This is the best model you can find, he is very cool

This is terrific! Well done!

I went to Heida's DPC page to check out all her ribbons, and noted soemthing odd; her highest-rated image did NOT take a ribbon...

Strange...

Great portrait. Not wearing what one would usually associate with this position. His unruly beard adds enough interest to make this a fascinating study. 7
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/13/2005 03:34:28 PM
Oh wow! definitiely getting a 10 from me. Interesting subject, and colors. Dof and shadows are fantastic. Love it. One of my favorites thus far.

Back again...it is my fav of the challenge and in my world this would get the blue..i hope it does
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/13/2005 01:48:40 AM
Awesome work
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/12/2005 11:18:53 PM
I think his blue eyes sets off the pink perfectly. 8
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/12/2005 12:50:18 PM
The detail is outstanding. Some may argue that fuscia or magenta is not quite pink, but hey, I can detect pink in the highlights of the cloth. Bumping up from 6 to 7

Brilliant portrait. A ribbon perhaps. 10

02/12/2005 12:01:33 PM
Superb character shot. Shame about the distracting hand(?) below the beard.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/12/2005 10:02:16 AM
this looks too dark and desaturated
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/11/2005 09:39:32 PM
outstanding portrait. his eyes are piercing and his wiry beard contrasts nicely with the soft fabric around his head. my favorite in the challenge! 10
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/11/2005 05:23:11 PM
Wonderful contrast. Powerful photo, despite the pink robe, the interesting beard still the eyes draw the most attention imho. Great.

Coming back for comments...very nice picture...bumping to 10.

Returning for comment:
Ooooh this one is unique!
I love the lighting and the details. I'm a little bit distracted by the pink tone of the skin, which looks a bit weird IMO. But other then that I think this one is a wonderful photo and very different. Bumping up!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/10/2005 11:18:43 PM

absolutely amazing clarity in this shot. I love the lighting and the feel of the entire shot. The model was really perfect for the pink challenge as it seems a contrast of character. 9.

02/09/2005 03:33:54 PM
very nice. I think this is the same priest I commented on elsewhere. I like this shot better. He's looking directly into the camera and his eyes are fantastic. Beautiful photo.

I like this shot a lot, it stands out so much from the other entries! Very good portrait, IMO. Could do with a little bit more DOF maybe...9

The eye contact makes me want to keep looking. Excellent!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/07/2005 02:11:05 PM
Very powerful image. Great lighting, dynamic eyes. However the head wear seems a little off as far as the color pink, seems more of a purple hue. Wonderful execution. 8
