Critique Club Review:
As noted in other comments Nathan comes across as the subject of the piece. You've cropped the top of his head, which is a little distracting. I'm not sure if you meant to frame the mask on the wall with Natan's arms. If you meant to, then it's almost centered in the picture (see the rule of thirds) and is small for a point of interest. If you didn't want that effect, then a shallower depth of field to isolate Nathan from the background would have helped. The triangular lighter colored object sticking out from behind Nathan's forearm also interrupts the flow of the picture. Overall lighting, focus, color, and saturation are done well. |

| at first we think we know who the subject is, but then we realize he is framing another subject, who looks on blankly at his pain... or is that sympathy sneaking into his eyes? 8 |

| This is a really good portrait. You can see the pain in his face, the emotion contrasts well with the skull tattoos. What bugs me is the mask (?) in the background. The photo would be even better if it was removed, or shot from a slightly different angle. |

| This challenge is "image without a subject" I think the man in the middle of the picture counts as a subject. It this where a challenge like say....desolation It would be very good. |

this is such a fascinating photo... so many faces and so many emotions.. for me, and speaking only from my perspective, it is not subjectless; it is a very interesting study that has me looking at his anguished face, the neutral face in the crook of his arm and then, many faces on his arm... an 8
