Great idea, but I think it could have been executed better. The white balance is a bit too warm, there are not enough details in the eyes and one is half masked by the hand, and there is way too much pure black in areas where shadows could be a lot more detailed.

This one is not for me. Sorry.

philippe said 577 days ago:

Alexandre, I can understand what you say on a technical point of view. But the picture is exactly as I wanted: warm tones and deep blacks (no interesting detail to see here).
You don't have to like this kind of processing, I know some photographers don't. I won't sue you for that. ;O)

Rob, this exactly what I said about your picture. Funny, isn't it? :O)

what?

ChrisDymond said 577 days ago:

Nice quality to the image, but it just lacks inspiration for me, I'm afraid.

philippe said 577 days ago:

So: nattfodd says good idea, bad quality and Chris says good quality but poor idea. Ha!Ha!

Ah, I think we've all done this at some point. Nice shot, the added shadows above his left eye do it for me. Makes him look deeper than he really is.
