An interesting subject - and I like the composition, except the white post in the background, which seems to be sprouting up almost out of the carving.

Nice, maybe a little higher on the crop to avoid the arms of his chair

Nice DOF, composition and choice of subject. I like the concentration on your subjects face. Border doesn't work for me.

Great subject for this challenge. I like how the artist is nice and focused and the background out of focus but still recognizable. I guess a tree is very appropriate. The angle of the photo is good for showing the artist. Two thing that would enhance the photo for me are (1) to position yourself such that the white pole isn't in the photo, it's very distracting (of course, I don't know what the rest of the surroundings looks like and whether that was possible) and (2) to somehow show a different angle of the carving ... w/out the title I would've had a hard time figuring out that he was doing woodcarvings.

Love this capture, good job! (It would have been nice if you could have orientated yourself as to exclude the post from the shot - takes away from the image)

Wothout the white pole, this would have been brilliant - nice photo.
