while im all for cropping the tops of heads off, i don't like cropping the chin
also the hand even tho its out of focus... it to much in focus making it a distraction....
do like how despite part of his face is in shadows... its still exposed right

PS: did you want me to move this to the Critique section??

I like when either both the top of the head and chin are cropped, or neither. In this case, this is how the photo was taken so it's not an option.

That hand marks a problem I had with many of my pictures that day...distrcating things that made it into the frame.

Thanks for saying that it's exposed right...I'm working very hard on that. The histogram helps a lot!

You can move it if you like...I wasn't sure if it belonged here or in the critique section.

Thanks again for replying.
