Great portrait dear Patrick.but it seems that the face/eyes are slightly out of focus and not so sharp, as the top of the head is more focused!?!?! and the light on the face, forehead is strange, it is not so white but more gray??? how come??? But great portrait! Kisses, Biliana

personally i really like this one... the black clothes and hair along with the grey background leave the face to be the only protagonist in the image... again he has a very serious expression but it has a far softer result than the previous one.... very good work... keep on shooting portraits... emy :)

Patrick, after reading above comments (especially Hugo's) I agree that this is a good photo, but could be a great one with some small changes. But I too am not expereinced with protraits, so this is good learning for me too! Take care, Omar

Also this one is very nice. I would have liked to see a tighter crop, though. The shot is sharp and the tones, just great Superb work!!!! Emgy

I really appreciate how u care for every single detail in your pics! The fact that your model is wearing a black shirt really makes this one work more than the others! Theres nothing to distract us form his face! Simple and great 7/7

Excellent job! Huog gave you some great suggestions. As far as the slightly off-center crop, I agree with Hugo. As a rule of thumb for off-center compositions, I usually "open" the direction they are looking and "close" the opposite direction, this will give a more dynamic image. The only thing I would like to add is lower your light a few inches, your light is a little too high and you get shadows in the eyes, lowering a bit will open up the eyes more.

Great tonal range here, Patrick. I like it. I think when considering portraits, if you ever did this professionally, you have to consider that they will be matting and framing these, thus the need for the it being centered. As for as posting here and not for framing, I think it's wonderful.

Hi Patrick,
reading Hugos comment, at least I agree with his number three, more contrast in the black part.
Agree with you, never stop learning about something, like portraits, but the last four examples are really good, perhaps I'm not the best judge, but they are IMO.
Cheers, Verena

Thanks alot for your comment and analyze! Im glad you try to help me to improve..=) I had very poor light so i used a flash, Nikon Sb-800. The light could have been better.. i agree on that. I havent done many portrait yet so i have much to learn!
Thanks for your help! =)

Hi Patric, very well captured portrait, and a very high quality. A few thoughts, though. I think placing the lightsource a bit more to your side would've created a bit more depth in the profile. Also, I think the expression is a bit posed / forced. Thirdly, As I think this is a studio type of shot, I think some more contrast in the black parts would do justice to the overall appearance. Last, the composition, with the visage left of the center looking left creates a rather closed composition; which makes it look rather narrow on the left, if you see what I mean. Some more head room on the left would balance the composition, IMO.
Of course, there's much more to this shot than those thoughts or critisism; The tonal range is excellent, and I think it's expertly exposed. Crisp and sharp, and I do think it's a good shot.
Cheers,
Hugo
