| Congratulations! He has indeed got an interesting face, and you have portrayed it to perfection. He looks like he belongs in a Western. |

Well done yourself! Excellent finish. Now you just need a blue for a street portrait to complete three set, but alas that will knock your old timer yellow off your front page.
Way to go! Excellent portrait! |

This has to be [uaer]Yo_Spiff[/user]'s. It reminds me so much of "the old timer" but with a trimmed face.
Very nice portrait. I like how his head divides the brighter area on the right and the darker area to the left.
Only criticism is that his moustache blends in with his face on the left, while it doesn't on the right. If it was shot on a bright day there mightn't have been much you could do about it though.
Still a very nice character shot. |

| Very, very nice portrait. Great detail, sharp where it needs to be. And the composition is quite interesting in that his right eye seems hopeful while his left eye seems a bit sad, as though the juxtaposition with the black is negative and the brighter background has a bit of promise. Great image. |
