Awesome! a toasty warm color contrasting nicely w/the expression on his face. I can't help but admire the perfect crop.

Very cool, very artsy. Love the golden tone, almost reminds me of a battle pic or something (with the shades of darkness on the face and the golden flares in the background). The stare says a lot in this pic.

This is incredible. I really love the textures over it all and the colouring is just sweet. 9 (I'm a 10-o-phobe)

Excellent portrait. I really like the way you composed and processed this.

A very dramatic image. I like the composition and tonal values. Looks like it should be an ad for some new tv show or part of a movie trailer.

If this guy were a musician, this would be an excellent album cover.

I gave you a 9 but am now bumping to a 10. I love the golden glow and the off centre portrait, great catchlights in the eyes.

Intense and interesting. I really love the grain and sepia (or maybe it's quadtone?) treatment. Nicely done!

I wish I could see more of his left eye. Great tones.

Woah - love the Moody Blues' reference. Great shot. His eyes have such an intensity to them. Sad and emotive. 7
