Greetings from the Critique Club
This photo brings out some of the personality of the model. Nice textures on the face, and the pose works well, giving the feeling of a glimpse into his real self, not the facade seen in standard portraits. The red headband is especially useful, adding a touch of color and generally complementing the subject. Lighting is a bit harsh, but probably unavoidable for a candid shot like this and certainly adequate; nothing important is burned out or in deep shadow. The balance is poor, with the cropped head but full chest. I think framing the photo a little higher, getting the whole head and less chest, would have been more effective, both improving the balance and minimizing the white area that tries to grab the viewer's attention. |

| This is a great image. I especially like the fact that it seems to understand that the 1980s happened in places other than the United States. |

OK, the subject is very good. Technically I like the photo, the pose and composition and colors. What I don't like is postprocessing. It looks like it's draganized(?). It's not that I don't like the Dragan effect, I just don't like when it's noticeable. Just my opinion
Good luck |

| This s a very good portraiture. I dont see the tie to the 80's - but very nice. Minus 2 for not meeting the challenge (7) |

| Good portrait but not for this challenge. What does this have to do with the 80s? |
