Superb! I'll also add my voice to the others that this ought to have been several places higher in the running.
Nitpicks that might have turned them but didn't bother me:
- Period clothing, but gel in the hair
- odd creasing in the pants that
- overall softness, and low contrast, especially in the face. Lack of shadows tends to flatten that part of the image a bit.
- the eyes could have used a little punch, maybe boost the blues channel? (legal in basic)
Overall, my impression is of someone who was not on the highest ranks of the court. A very Hollywood type of character who dresses up but definitively lacks a certain polish in everything but his manner.
Very nice shot. |

The best photo in this challenge. Almost a 10, just needs a little more contrast in the face and kerchief. |

Your cravat is way too droopy for that time period, m'lord. |

Nice! My only nit is that the hand color/tone appears "off" compared to the face. Great color tones in the pic itself, though. |

Unique and interesting. The dark under the eyes bothers me and the wrinkles on the coat, but overall a good take on the challenge and well done. 7 |

Interesting picture... I like it. Make-up gives it a corpse look. The focus is a bit soft, especially for a fashion shot. Love the clothes. |

Like the ghostlike quality. His eyes and hand draw you into the photo. Well done! |

I have one word for you... Iron!
Ok maybe I have a few more. I do like the threads you picked out, but next time please please please take the time to iron then, it will make a HUGE difference in how professional you work looks. |

Image CALLS OUT for a better background. |

Interesting concept. The whiteness of the background seems to be competing with the subject, though, and the subject himself seems a little washed out. |

Love the tones. Love the espression. Love the attention to stance and hand placement. Love the face and the shadows under the eyes. HATE the wrinkles in the outfit. Takes away from the almost sexy appeal of the photo. It is like he is saying "may I have this dance, madam" but being said by someone who wore the same clothes for the last month or by a slob...LOL.., which takes away from the allure that is being portrayed. Very distracting. BUT, nice change up from the rest of the entries, and a decent score given for that. |
