Nice portrait.

A bit too tight.

Regards, Bogdan

You have posed it nice and shot it sharp. The reflection from the guitar on the left side of the nose have created an illusion of ripples and that is  a bit distracting. Regards, ifti.

Jim,

I really like this portrait. You have focused on his eyes well and have good catchlights. The composition is very good.

I don't much care for your kicker hitting his forehead and especially his nose.

His skin tone is a little on the red and perhaps blue side. You could also give it a little more exposure.

You don't want to crop into his right hand or his left thumb. It would be better to either show all of his right hand or have him remove it from the picture. I would get all of his left hand out of the image.

I find the silver jacket snap (it think that is what it is) in the lower left corner a bit distracting. My eyes keep going there.

Nice shot,

Mark

Great portrait. It's technically well done, but I love the inclusion of the guitar. It lets you know a little about this person.
