All comments and critiques welcomed. Any suggestions for

improvement? Thank you, James

James, I like this portrait. The strong features, sharp lines, intensity of the expression, breadth of the shoulders, all combine very objectively. Personally I like this lighting style... works very well with proper subjects.

 

I'm slightly concerned about the reflection on the forehead which seems a little strong to me... it also leads to a little loss of details, and at a very prominent place. But please take this as a subjective opinion.

 

Best regards.

Thank you for your very positive comments . I do appreciate the constructive critique. Now next time I shoot such a tall person I will move the softbox a little farther away. Thanks again, James

How is it now? I took your advice and burned the highlights on the forehead slightly to give back some detail. Best regards, James

The kind of portrait I like. Shame it's slitghly out of focus though...

Thanks for your comment. I was hitting the focus on his eyes, and yes the DOF blurs out the rest of him. Best regards, James
