I like seeing how adventurous you are getting with those filters, Steve. This makes a very dramatic statement and besides the great choice of filters, the subject and pose are total perfection for the effect. Well done! Ed.

An artful presentation. I like the tonal reversal and the excellent composition. I have looked several times to try to determine what is in his left hand, but could not figure it out. A very striking image.

When I saw this image I thought you had taken up painting or digital art Steve. LOL Then I realized this was a photo, and it has indeed a strong Visual impact. I would however have categorized it as Mixed Media Medium.

I like the Bright lines you have brought out, just like the young man is shining, but I think it is a bit over done. Just my personal meaning of course. But it is great distinctions between dark and light.

I like a lot the format you have cropped the photo into and also the placement of the Young man within the frame. I like the way he is posing for you as well. An original, creative and well taken photo With an interesting editing.

    Thank you Annie. yes I think you are right about it being Mixed Media Medium. It is also a bit overdone as you have pointed out. I need to revisit this one and tone it down a bit. I always appreciate your reviews and suggestions ~ Steve

    You are more than welcome Steve. It is a great idea, and I think this would look great if you toned Down the very Bright areas.
