Meet Brian. He has lots of testosterone and *used* to have lots of charcoal lighter fluid; but he used it all starting this BBQ fire, and the blowback left this oily soot on his face. I forced him to pose. That's his sheepish look... |

I LOVE this! I totally disagree too with Noel_ZH. The detail and rich exposure make this so beautiful!
I can't even count the number of photos in this challenge that seem ridiculously underrated!

| Cool! The skin looks somewhat unnatural though - too much post-processing maybe? |

| Maybe a tad bit overprocessed, as the subject (man) appears a wee bit too hard sharpened. But it's an excellent capture none the less! |
