Dawna: Don't meant to be rude, (just tired at the moment, really so I sound kind of rude) but I could care less if there is a white spot on the guys face. Maybe photographers don't strive for it, but it is what happened in this photo and I frankly don't see that it ruins it that much. This photo is real for once. I know Dan can handle criticism and I know he doesn't mind criticism -- I simply expressed an opinion.

Dan - this would fit the character project very well. I think shooting this in some light shade would have made a better exposure possible, but you may not have had that option. The harsh sun on the face takes away from the quality of the image to me. If I have to shoot people in the direct sunlight, I get them to turn their back to it, and use a little fillflash.
Lisa: the overexposed areas are the bright white areas on the face, and is not what most people strive for in their work. Dan is a good photographer and I am sure does not mind hearing suggestions or comments such as this.

Nice capture...just a bit too centered perhaps.

Wow, detail is amazing, and yes, colouring is great. I really like the half peanut left on the table. Awesome! I only wish I had the skill, (and partially equipment) to take such a sharp picture. Cheers, Marc

Thank you for all your comments. The man in the picture, Audry was a very nice guy. I asked him if I could take his picture and he posed a few different ways for me. He seems to be a very intelligent man. He aksed me to bring him a print tomorrow.

Can't help liking this one too, althoug I like the first version better. I like the other one because of the way his head is tipped and the expression. This one isn't as engaging as the first, but still a nice portrait.

I don't think it looks over exposed, actually. I like the photo and I like the subject. What an interesting character to shoot. I like the way his head is tilted as if almost in a skeptical manner. I also like the brightness of the photo the way it is taken in the sun. It isn't as if it makes homelessness a good thing, but it doesn't make it as dark and scary as other photos do. It puts a face on the issue, not a feeling of foreboding.

Oh, meant to add, nice DOF and nice background. THe addition of the table where he is standing is a nice touch. Also like the fact he is doing something. The coloring is very nice and warm

It looks a little overexposed as the highlights are blocked up. Try levels in Photoshop and use the middle slider to change the midtones. Great subject.

Nice and sharp. The face is washed out a bit but nothing that can't be dodged down some. aj

In general, I like the composition and smooth patterns. I maybe wrong in reading. but, IMO, this picture is overexposed... You are better off metering the highlights for slides than the shadows.

I like the your choice of camera location on this shot. I think the image is much stronger because it is shot from above the scene.

This has a lot of mood and atmosphere... I can't believe the beach wasn't packed, on such a nice morning! *grin* The muted tones and colours really play off each other and the rounded beach with the dark rocks makes this shot.
