great portrait! i really like the muted tones and the limited pallette of colors in this shot. the highlights are lush and convey just the perfect amount of information. thanks!!!
in the words of a world famous philospher:
"I yam what i yam and that's all what i yam!"
I think it's pretty good, but it needs something else. It would work well as an illustration, accompanying a story. But it doesn't tell enough on its own. The light and atmosphere are wonderful. But there's just not enough stuff in the photo to tell enough of the story. I also think it's too centered. And I thought there were stronger images in the gallery you showed us on the sports forum.
