I would appreciate any opinions of lighting, mono conversion, pose, crop, etc. Anything at all, really. :)

    Love the second. 'Cause it is darker :D and has just enough detail in the bottom left corner to orient the portrait subject for the viewer.

    Thanks. Yes, I debated losing that corner...

    Is the studio actually fully dark or have a few lights on?

    Thanks. The studio was not dark at all...but the ambient light didn't affect the exposure as the exposure was too quick. Cheers. :)

    I don't agree that #2 is "much better." I like them both -- they're very different, and both work (and tell a different story). Great work.
