Here's a photo of Michael :O He'll probly kill me for posting it
I was using his 70-200/2.8 and SB800, on my cam. Very nice gear. I want I want I want
Crit would be fantastic
I think I blew out his cheek a little bit with the flash, but hey... First time ever using it so I don't think I did too bad

Might have needed f4 rather than f2.8 as his chin is soft. Eyes look good

shot looks good, and for me the aperture setting works... just not sold on the composition....
cheers

I have to agree with Mark, that the composition is the biggest issue for this shot (for me atleast). The DOF could of been a little better (get a bit more of his features in focus), but overal the exposure works alright,

Mmm yeah I don't think the composure is really at my best. I wasn't really intending to take any 'decent' shots per se when snapping, but when I was going through them this turned out ok

Nice portrait, Michael. I like the composition, but would prefer more dof to have the chin sharper.

doesnt work for me.
compositionally, something like the same shot with the head turned the other way would be stronger.
At the moment, the guy looks out of the frame, probably better to be looking into the frame.
more DOF would help also.
on my notebook, the whites look hot on the cheek also.

I didn't take it..... it's of me taken by vort using my lenses whilst he was lusting over them and my flash, I actually have this ridiculous look on my face because at the time of the photo I was playing a bass and always make faces when playing.

The DOF may be a smidge short but like the B&W toning...
