| I think this would be one of the best ones if it weren't for the seemingly out-of-place catchlights in his eyes and the overly reflective watch. It's a great pose with a lot of emotion (you're REALLY good at capturing that!). I love everything about it except those two things. |

this is another nice shot. though there is a little more here. the lighting ratio (the difference betwen the brightest bright and the darkist dark) is a little to big, that is it's to dark on the left. use a fill card or a second light to change that. the catch lights in his eyes are in the wrong place, catch lights should always be in the top part of the eye, when you put them in the bottom part it gives it a spooky lighting feel. never ever put a light that is lighting someones face with a light that is level or below the persons face. there are also reflections on the watch, again that is from incorrect lighting. when there is any shiny metal in a shot you have to, have to, use a diffusion screen and pull the light back from the model. if you don't do this you will get what you have here in this shot.
I do like the pose though. other than the hand everything looks great
the hand is distorting the face a little. The hair lighting on the hair does look great and the black and white conversion is beautiful (as always)
overall, I think this is the weakest shot out of the series, but overall the series is great.
p.s. sorry I can't spell anything |

| Really nice but the glint in his eye almost seems fake. I like the lighting to one side. Nice focus. I'd probably have him remove the watch - it's a tad distracting. |
