I am getting very mixed reactions for this photo, some love it some

really hate it. So I have decided to ask you as a broader audience.

What do you like and what do you dislike about it.

Hi Plamen,

 

I like the photo, it is funny and, I guess, reveals somehow the personnality of the person. I recognize that some may not like this photo and I think that it may have to do with the fact that we somehow "expect" portraits to represent people at their best.

 

Congratulations.

I agree with Juan in ways....I think if you knew the person, then you would obviously say something like - "that is so uncle bill" - but when I view it on here I simply kinda smile, laugh, and say that is a weird face - the face is so weird it does seem a bit staged.....but I dont know "uncle bill" either :) You certainly captured the portrait very well!!!

I like it . It's a " fun " picture and he is obviously an obliging model !

the texture of your subject's skin is fantastic for a typical wise, aged looking pose displaying the hard years the person has gone through. The fact that the pose is such a diversion from the norm makes me really like this photo and look even harder at it than I otherwise would.

 

 

Good job!
