Great composition and lighting. The catchlights in your eyes are good too. I like this shot in black and white.

Very nice job. Good choice on the hat as it adds nice texture variety. The black & white works very well and the expression on your face makes the pic feel personal. My guess is that your wife loves it! Good luck!

I like the texture of the hat contrasting to your skin and beard. Nice cropping and composition. Good job.

Very nice composition. I find myself wishing for a higher level of contrast as overall the image looks a touch flat in black and white. Overall, nice job.

Cool.....

Love the hat! You should try a little selective USM on your eyes to make them a little sharper. 7

FanTASTIC! I just love these tightly cropped close-ups. This one is absolutely perfect! Should be in the top 3 in my opinion! I hope it ends up there! Great job! 10

Very cute eyes, the picture could use some more contrast
  Photographer found comment helpful.

oooh, darlin' Really cute. Nice texture on the hat. The eyes seem just slightly OOF. Maybe the focus was up just a bit more, instead of on your face. I'd reshoot with a solid background - the carpet to the right is just a bit distracting.

Like this one alot :o)Good lightning and pose....and look...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Really needs a bit more sharpness in my opinion, especially at the eyes, because this is otherwise a fantastic portrait... light is great.
