Mr. White Oak, I presume? And someone put some pants on that guy!

Sorry. I got carried away. Looks like the lighting was tough, but you pulled it off. Nice tones, and the hint of personification evident in some of Weston's photos. Gets better the longer I look at it. Good luck!

This one has me a bit confused. Which is good IMHO. I looked at a number of Weston photographs, but missed any that had a foot. Anyway, I don't particularly like looking at guys hairy legs. BUT, the tones, the perspective, the detail, and the sense of motion imparted by the 'foot rest' are all very cool. And to top it off it looks very 'filmy' or film-like. So... I gave it a nine. Hairy mans leg and all.

I like this type of photo.. this man in his element. At first I didn't like the movement from what I presume is a slow shutter speed handheld. Now I am not so sure. Almost appropriate considering the environment.

Every time I come back to this I like it more and bump it a notch. Better than Weston.

Ha! You have the toilet, the gas mask, the nude... and is that a plate of fruit or veggies? Nice... 8

Yup. Right on the money. I am a fan of a white "print-like" border, but you might get a comment or two about that. A unique form that invites me to personify the tomato. Tones and contrast... heck... is this an actual Weston photo??

Perfect, as far as the Weston style is concerned. (Except maybe a 4x5 crop would be even more Wetonesque.) For me, achieving the wonderful tones you have here was not possible due to my skill level. 9

Another wonderful portrait in the Weston style, IMHO. Interesting that many of his shots are rather high contrast, but from what I have seen, his portraits are generally not so. 8

I like everything about this. Well almost everything. I gave it an 8. My opinion, which is worth everything you paid for it, is that I wish the finger in the hair wasn't separated from the rest of the hand. And I would like to see just a shadow or faint image of what she is sitting on. But what do I know. Very nice!

From my experience in this challenge, getting the light right on a vegi is not easy. Well done here and a 7 from me.
