Love it...Great shot! Reply »

Great texture & light tones. Reply »

I love the lighting and texture, but I do not like the composition much. I think the eye is too close to the top, and you even cut off a bit of the eye. The eye is what draws your attention, and because it is so high up you are distracted from the rest of the photo Reply »

Have to completely disagree with dem90, The tight crop is what I like the most about this. Great Job Author! Reply »

Stunning! Reply »

yah, I see your point, dem90, it is a tight crop but that was my intention for this particular image. Reply »

I'm with Adam here...this is a GREAT image. The very tight crop makes the image IMHO. The tones and texture are superb as is the lighting. Top notch work author!!! Reply »

I thought the crop is perfect Reply »

like this very much -- reminds me of the old T-Max grain Reply »

superb, love it. A new fav for me.
A teeny-weeny bit more above the eye, really just an itty-bitty more skin I would have loved. Reply »

It's okay, she can't spell "you're..." lol! Reply »

I love it! And surprisingly good penmanship. :P I'd pull the crop out at the right though; it seems a little too close to the copy. All the best! Reply »

Awesome job Author!!! Out of all the lighting techniques I've used I never even thought about this, I love it. I especially like your choice in background. Reply »

Reply:

wonderful work and thanks for the SBS Reply »

Nice shot, but I find the border on the background a little disconcerting (minor though) Reply »

This symbolizes many different things for many different people, it can depend on who you are and where you live. It can symbolize Authority, Protection, Hero, Power, Safety, Corruption, Aggression and so on. For me when I see this it symbolizes having the balls to get in that uniform. What does it symbolize for you. Reply »

Reply:

Yes, I agree................The shot is simple, well executed, and with so many meanings, well done. Reply »

Reply:

very good. Reply »

Reply:

I think he symbolizes authority but he's so small against the city that his authority really is more symbolic than real. There's just so much that can be seen in the photo. Weapons combined with a kind face for example.
Really great shot. Reply »

Reply:

I like it. And yes, he is small to compare to the City. But just try to make a turn from the wrong lane (for example) and you'll see his power. Reply »

good Reply »

Congrats for your second place, Nator! Reply »

Reply:

A unique idea to leave the defined symbol and apparently it earned you extra points but this is still just a simple but powerful image all at the same time, so congrats on your placement. Reply »
