I bet the blown highlights in the background will kill the score. Prediction? 5.1

I'm just happy that I went through with the challenge of approaching a stranger and striking up a conversation with the goal of taking their picture.

the head tilt, yonder gaze, and shallow depth are all very strong...the near blowout on the highlights are somewhat distracting (could be monitor compliance though) 8

I like the cool muted tones, and shallow DOF focusing on one eye. The pose is excellent.

I generally like the partially desaturated look, but I wish there was the tiniest bit more color in his face so he wouldn't look so pale. The angle of his head works well, but I can't decide if I like the wink or not.

A touch bright but very interesting subject and image regardless. I think in this case the soft and shallow DOF have worked against you. Thats just my opinion i like grungy images and this guy is full of it but the thin DOF takes some of that away.

I LOVE IT! HE is FASCINATING. I'd love to have him in my collection of street portraits. Congratulations! I'm not voting in this challenge, but I wanted to comment and say how cool this one is!
