All quite remarkable.
Here is my nitpicks.
#3 Maybe too high up in the frame. It looks as though you have cut off his hair.
Maybe it was meant?
#1 Between Zack's left eye(as I look at it) and his hair is a strange dark smudge/shadow/mark. Just stands out a bit to me.

Hi NT

Thanx.

Yes #3 was intentionally framed to cut of his hair, i wanted to show his arms and his body language. But when i look at it more i think i either should have cut it of more or just let it all in the frame.

#1 thats a bumb he got the other day, forgot to clone it out in that shot. :-)


Thanx for looking.

Paul - The lighting in the first image is very even and professional. The pose looks a little like a school photo.

The last one is an absolute beauty. I dont know how you got him to make that expression but it is great. It suits the moody light which is perfect. The jumper is made for this shot with so much texture and shadows. Cant say enough good things...

Canon 50D.
