Oh ya, this is a good effort. I find the whites blown out on my monitor though. Oh well, I'm sure it'll sell ;-)

These sexy birthday cards can definitely be fun. However, this one just looks too soft. (The focus, not his abs.) Also, having him hold a birthday cake (or similar) would add to the message.

Great concept. I like the angle, the position of the model, etc. It does seem out of focus though.

Focus to be off. I think pictures like this need to be very sharp and in focus.

One word: HOT!!! I"m way too distracted by the model to be fair on this one. I'll give it a shot though. Nice composition, skin tone, and lighting. Not sure if I care for the choice of background but since the DOF is shallow it's not too distracting. The green adds a nice contrast. Now in regards to the model.....nice abs (like the leading lines), tat, and chain. WOW!!!! Can't work now.
