This doesn't fit the challenge very well, but it's a very expressive picture.

Nice candid portrait. The background is a bit cluttered looking (the baseball bat, the stuff on top of the shelves, the ladder,whatever that is directly under his left elbow) His face looks a little soft focus to depict the strength mentioned in the title. Despite that, it's a very appealing photo.

Great shot! The lighting is wonderful! I'm left wanting a shallower DOF, but to me it's not tradgic enough to score down much at all for it. The tonalities of the face are just unbelievable!!!

Experiment with changing your angle or where you have the subject focus his gaze, to minimize the appearance of lazy eye.

This is a really nicely composed photo. The subject matter, the model's expression, the older looking weights, very nice. The only thing I would look to change is the background. It's a little distracting (the ladder, the screen door, broom, baseball bat). These all take away from what you are portraying. Also, the choice of black and white is good, but when shooting in b/w I would say your subject(s) should stand out from their background. In this case, the grays are too close together to really *pop* out at me. Otherwise, great shot.

Nice use of black & white...Did you maybe mean, "Habituality Breeds Strength"?
05/19/2004 08:05:12 AM
Nice shot, good use of b&w, sharpness, contrast, and lighting all good.

Good overall photo. To really nit-pick, the reflection on the weight to the right is too strong for my taste. Otherwise, very very good.
