cute

A bit of the bottom edge of the sweater could use a touch up -- nice picture

fixed!

What's wrong with his nose? Great shot !

I guess it is some type of tumor........I couldn't resist shooting.........

my uncle had a nose similar to this mans...not quite as bad. He had cancer and just recently had his nose removed and a new one constructed for him. Poor guy

Poor bloke - at least he still seems to have his sense of humour - I mean, check out that tie

you should have seen the other colors in it.............

Very cute girl...

beautiful outfit and a beautiful little girl

What a cutie, just wish you had a different background, either totally plain or something interesting.

very cool shot author...gl

I agree with friiskiwi. If you had moved her over to the right (or her left) you probably could have had an all white background it looks like.

BEAUTIFUL SHOT!!

amazing shot! i love the urban style, simply because it is a style I wear also! It is quite popular in my city (brooklyn, ny). all the males in my family dress urban (since im a mix of jamaican and italian) - i really appreciate the urban style showcased in this fashion photography contest, thank you author for making it shine in a brilliant way!

Superb shot, worthy of a fashion mag, the lighting is excellent. Well done author.

Awesome light textures and the pose of the model, well done =)

Author, the rim-lighting is superb...great set-up and location, just need a hint of spot-lighting on the face to make this BAM! magazine worthy...sincerely great job

I disagree with mymoment, It is perfect just the way it was shot, again GREAT job!!

Fantastic!

I have to agree with itsmymoment on this one because the man is a very handsome guy and his face isn't highlighted enough--it's kind of flat. But this is an awesome picture as it is! And I have to say that the posing is PERFECT! It looks natural and comfortable for him (I get OCD about posing sometimes)
edit: next time I would wipe off the back of his shirt though after posing him against things

Well thank you for you brutal critiques

Actually I agree with Kellie and James, the one thing that bugs me about this photo is the light on his face. There are two reasons why it is like this, first is inexperience. I had never photographed a person with dark skin before this shot so I had some exposure issues, the second is lack of equipment. At the time of this photo i didn't have a lot of the equipment that I have now, I only had 1 external flash and even though I did use it here I couldn't dial it up enough to expose his face the way I wanted without washing out his clothes. If I could go back again I would fix it for sure. As far as the dust goes.... that was just me not looking at the details.

really well done, great pose and lighting

congrats yours was by far my favorite!

Congrats

very nice! and she's got beautiful eyes!

beautiful shot...gl author
