    ooooo #4!!!! Totally works, and actually turns the choice of clothing into an asset instead of a detraction - bravo!

    I really like #1, as well - great eyes (I'm beginning to think of this as much your trademark as the "sparkly natural light" that you always seem to get.... or create as necessary!)

    (What is with the wind blowing from behind hairstyle all these whippersnappers are wearing these days?:rutt)

    Congrats on 3K!
    1- Not digging the green sweater with his eyes. For someone reason the image looks soft to me. Its probably tack sharp but the psychodelic sweater is freaking me out.

    2- I like the pose and the parallel lines but facial skin tone appears washed out against the light background. (note: on horrible work monitor - grain of salt)

    3- I really like the conversion and the idea behind the image. The forward tilt of his head from the wall and the tilt of the wall itself leads to the feeling that it is about to tumble over. If he straightened his back to lift his chin back and higher, this would have been a pretty strong portrait.

    4- Awesome shot. thumb.gif Love the angle, pose, and background. I don't know if it is this monitor or not but his hair looks to have a little bit of a purplish cast. headscratch.gif The overall cool color theme running through the image really works!

    5- Neat image but he appears to get lost in it somewhat. I don't know if it is the bright background sliver behind him enveloping the light shirt or just the magnitude of the surroundings. I'd like to see this same image shot with a wide-angle lens closer to the subject to have him fill more of the frame while still capturing the fullness of the surroundings. The location looks like it would really jam if you pulled him forward toward the camera, away from the background. (Of course i see a ledge there so that may not work rolleyes1.gif )

    All of these are keepers Jeff. If they were in my portfolio, they would be the stars but in yours.... well... middle of the road.

    ...as for the hair....I really don't know.....If I did that it would simply be called a comb-over...

    Something about #4 just WORKS! Nicely done. I think you did quite well with the wardrobe you were "given" to work with.
