a bit blurry, especially the right-side eye and face. not so fond of the cropping, it makes him look like he's lost his left arm here.

*Edit* Hopefully this comment will be more helpful.

I like the fact that there's an expression on his face, and the color of the shirt works well. However, it looks as if this was taken outside (against a garage door?) I think if your going to take a photo outside, it may be better to make use of a more natural surrounding...i.e. trees, grass etc.

Slightly too soft for my tastes, I'm afraid.

No light in his eyes to bring out a spark in the photo. Don;t care too much for the background or his arms being chopped randomly. Decent expression and exposure.

Good shot, the lighting is very nice.

Not bad, the background doesn't do much for the overall portrait...and your model doesn't look all that pleased to have his photo taken.

I like this shot. I like that it doesn't look to posed and has his personality all over it. Nice editing.

the drummer without the drums or the stick ? I believe you should have shown him with what he performs with ..

Not seeing alot of evidence of him being a drummer, I guess Ill take your word for it...LOL. Good colors. Lighting is decent.

This is excellent- that background is absolutly perfect! My only nitpick is the shirt's dominance in the photo- but thats IMHO. Nice work otherwise- one of the better of the challenge.
