i am surprised this didn't do better. i find whatever neatening you did to enhance the photo and increase the artistic content. (it's odd to me that you get dinged for "effect" while the girl with the pearl earring shot is praised for same. no accounting for it!) |

hmm looks strange, have you done some photoshopping on his face? It looks like its been softened and the eye/lip colur enhanced.
Not "bad" strange though so I haven't marked you down for this. |

Silky smooth skin. Got to love Photoshop. A bit too much. But I still love him. |

Nice lighting and pose. the skin looks very plastic. Did you use NeatImage on this? I think a little backlighting to distinguish the head and hair shape. |

Good pose and lighting. Very nice overall. A little overboard on the color and smooth face, though- looks almost surreal. I would have cloned out that green seal on the shirt, too. |

Very formal portrait of someone in a t-shirt - nice counterpoint - it's almost as if this is a Vermeer painting. - 8 |

Great subject and pose. Perhaps the shoulders turned a little bit more toward the camera instead of "sideways". Also, the skintones look a bit "too smooth" to me. I realize that young people do have very soft skin, and perhaps I am off in this observation, but it has a bit of "plasticness" to it. |

A great portrait. The detail of the eyes and shading on the skin is superb. And the pose and expression capture a soul. |

Great title. Amazing eyes. A great capture of the subject's personality - something every portrait should strive to do. I like the tones and the lighting. |

Nicely lit, good composition. Would benefit from a little light from overhead on the hair to separate him from the background. Dod you use NeatImage? It looks like it was over-applied, the skin has a too-smooth look typical of an over-NeatImaged image. |

Handsome child. I think a higher crop here would of improved this a great deal. The 'neat image' or what ever gives this an un-natural look. It's okay, just not my taste. My gosh with those beautiful eyes.....this kiddo has it made!!!!!! Awesome. |

I like what you did, but maybe just a little too much neatimage/smoothing. |

This is a lovely soft, colourful portrait. The lighting is superb and plays well against the clean black background. Did you use the tools available in the digital darkroom to achieve the skin texture? However achieved, it is a very attractive portrait. |
