A bit over-exposed perhaps but has a good candid feel and nice treatment. This guy's handsome, worn face is fantastic.

This reminds me sorta of another portrait I commented on.... Pretty much everything I said there is true here (ironic if this ends up being the same photog lol). In addition, however, I'd like to see the bit of his head not chopped. I'd also consider bringing more of the motorcycle into the frame. It would strengthen things in regard to the "environmental portrait." I picture the shot being from low to the ground, looking up at the rider. Perhaps slightly backlit with fill light. I like everything about this except for the close crop.

Medieval dirt rider? :) Magnificent portrait!

Great portrait, but the vertical lines above his head, as well as clipping just the very top of his head, are a bit distracting. The light and focus are excellent.

Very cool. I like the dramatic processing.

I enjoy the added depth of character here as well as the muted colours. It really creates a strong sense of personality to the portrait.

Great capture and colour treatment. Shot would have been better for me, if the top bit of his head hadn't been cut off.

Nice photo though I wish to see more of the bike too since I can already see a small portion of it.

For some reason he looks like a royal knight. Good use of processing to given him some extra rough edge.
