| Nicely done. I'd prefer a tighter crop. |

| A tighter crop on top might help. Having said that, the colors in this one are very distinct. Overall a good shot but needs a more unconventional approach, IMHO. |

| This is another one with awesome contrast and color between the subject and background. I'd almost say that this may be related to the other picture I commented on. |

| Hi eric! A competent portrait but a bit bland and uninteresting. Eric is a good model. Go for a walk with him and try some candid shots sitting, walking, talking etc. You will probably manage to capture somethign of his character. |

pull the crop on the top closer to his hat. too much green up there.
There is a grey line across his shoulders, and a strange unevenness to his neck.
great expression on his face.. captured a great personality here. |

| Nice job. It doesn't pop out from the competition, but there's not much to complain about either. There is something behind his shoulders (greyish) that's distracting. |

| Good capture. Nice shallow DOF. Even skin tones and direct, intimate contact with the subject. The catchlights in his eyes are fragmented and that's a little distracting but it looks like from the light that it was natural lighting. The light seems just a little flat (which could easily not be the case in the full sized version) so I'd only suggest a little more flash or probably a reflector. I don't know that a gold reflector would work well in this instance since the subject already has strong red tones to his skin but perhaps a white or, believe it or not, a black surface could put some nice, even light back up onto his face from below or from his right side. One tooth has a minor "hot" spot on it that with prolonged perusal can be a distraction but for the contest this is not a nit I'm counting off for and it'd be easily "fixed" before you printed to hang it. Maybe a little less green space at the top if you decide to print it and hang it but otherwise its a great shot. Technically sound and very pleasant to view. 8 |

| hmm - I thought from the thumbnail I wasn't going to like this, too centered blah blah - But surprise! I DO like it. For some rason I can't explain it shows a lot of personality 7 |

| very colourful and conveys an interest in sport - hope that is right! Lighting is good, minimal shadows while still conveying depth. A less intense background might provide a variation but would lessen the sporty motif. |
