It's really hard to make a connection with the subject with the hands covering the face; yet this is so technically excellent I find I'm still drawn to it. |

This is a great portrait and it doesn't even have a face or eyes in it! NOt everybody can do that. Lots of personality here. I like the lighting. |

Dark and moody - low key just feels good. |

Hands over face don't do it for me. It presents mystery that can't be satisfied by more observation. It's dark and despairing, but doesn't show much clue to his reality. |

There is something very stirring about this shot. It is very stark and contrasty, but in a very good way. The negative space really adds to this person's emotions, her hidden face an added mystery, rewarded with exquisite detail on the hands. A fave. |

This makes me feel sad. Why is he covering his face? Good emotive shot. |

He looks frustrated. Or like he doesn't want his picture taken. :P Still a good capture. |

I think that this one had a good deal of potential, especially with DPCs apparent insatiable hunger for third world images. The darkness of the image, unfortunately, leaves my hanging and only going back to the super-bright fingernails of the subject. I'd like to see this one with some lighting that was a good deal less harsh. |

To me the overall darkness of this shot makes the fingernails look unnatural or even blown out. Would have liked to see it a little lighter. |

The detail in the hands is very very good. Composition is strong. But n my calibrated monitor it's too dark overall to fully appreciate. |
