Outstanding... maybe too much brick on top, but still excellent processing.

Very nice work here! Great shot and excellent post processing. The color levels really work in this shot - well done. Composition/crop couldn't be better. Excellent shot to work with grunge - really makes you stand out. Again, very well done!

Cool...I like the compo and framing but if it were me, I would crop this differently. But this is YOUR style. Go for it. It is good as it is.

Jimmy! You've joined the DARK side :(

Great image and pose. By the way, you've got a bit of dust on your forehead there :P

Wow - great job on this! ...but aren't you a little over-dressed for working in the coal mines? ;-P

Wow!! That's crazy mad!! Love the brick wall and stairs. And your eyes look way cool. I'd like to see it in a horizontal crop too, but that's just because I like horizontal crops. I'm selfish like that. :-D Now stop scaring me!!!

I would go with a horizontal crop near to the top of your head. Just an opinion of course but with a tighter crop I think this would be one of your best images(...think, Librodo). Really nice work.

Nice grunge effect! My suggestions for the grunge photo would be to mess your hair up and find a shirt that isn't so nice. Maybe a T-Shirt with a flannel or un-buttoned button down shirt over the T. Maybe try some shots not looking directly at the camera as well.

I like it.
You've done a great job.
The only part I don't like is some of the hair makes it look as though the head has been cut and pasted onto the background.

I think you edited to get the effect excellently. But I hate to see you looking like that! Extremely good, but I want the old Jimmy back. :)
