a little too dark, I think.

I like the tone and feel of this overall. Jury's still out on the centered composition and the angle of his face. It's unique as a portrait from most of the others in the challenge. On this monitor (not a good one) I'm losing some detail in the black of his shirt and pants. Sorry about riding the fence on this one...it's "ok", not loving it, nor really disliking it. :D Good luck in the challenge.

What a sweet face, nice setup and light, the dark clothes make for a poor contrast, don't know if a crop of shoulders up would have been better...really nice portrait though

I found a lot of more interesting photos but, I can really appreciate the professional quality of it. I'm giving it an 8 but predict it will finish in the top 10.

I think this wouldhave been better off-center, with more negative space to the right for him to "look into". I like your low-key here. Well lit. I know it is hard to pose the little guys, but I think his hands spread apart like that are distracting, becuase they are a little 'disembodied' with the black shirt.

I like the contrast, lighting and pose. However, I am not sure what the Landscape format gives you but dead space...

The head came out quite well, but I wish you didn't lose most detail in the black closing - the body looks flat.
