Superb images on your website. Yo consistently produce quality images and clearly can translate the images in your 'mind's eye' into well composed and exposed images of great substance that demand the viewers attention.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread. Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.
Jaco,
I have but one word for these latest images. YES! Thank you for this; these are much better, and much more in keeping with the work I know you're capable of. Now, if we just learn to bend some rules.  g.

My wife is polish and...I'm there a lot of time during the year... Here i a new 42 pics gallery concerning "my" Poland! http://www.jacobel.net/pages/D70/polska05/ 
Jaco,
I certainly enjoyed you Poland photo's and infact checked out a few other galleries, I really enjoy your photo's but at the moment I'm working around the clock to a strict deadline (tomorrow morning when I fly out at 9am) so I don't always get to reply. Had a quick glance at your new portraits too, they look great I'll have a more relax look once I'm back in the country But please keep sharing!
Jaco,
I have come to expect this kind of excellence from you. Yes, there are a couple of little glitches at points, but nothing worth whining about in context with the full body of the work. Cheers, Last edited by Sheetshooter on Fri Oct 28, 2005 9:23 am, edited 1 time in total.

Jaco once again terrific images with great emotional content and expressiveness. Keep them rolling in I thoroughly enjoy viewing them and reflecting on my own portraits.
cheers marco
Jaco,
The greatest achievement of a picture, in my estimation, is to prompt thought, contemplation or meditation. Your Crown Of Thorns shot has done just that and I have pondered all through my breakfast pot of coffee why it is that we generally see stigmata represented on the hands and not across the brow as you have illustrated here. I keep coming to the conclusion that cowardice might have something to do with it - marking the hands is okay but marking the face is further than folk will go. Cheers and thanks, _______________

Jaco, once again a really enjoyable selection of images. I for one have a lot to learn about portraits, but your images show what can be achieved. I thank you for that.
A question: Do you do much post processing or are your images straight out of the camera? D3, D300, 14-24/2.8, 24-70/2.8, 85/1.4, 80-400VR, 18-200VR, 105/2.8 VR macro, Sigma 150/2.8 macro
