I like the handling of light/lighting here, and the interesting pensive mood.

Cheers, Mark ... thanks for noticing and kind words ... oh and I dig your gallery :-)

Great lighting and skin tones.. One very minor comment... The shadow on the feet (especially the right foot in the foreground) tends to show them as a bit more red/blue (magenta with a bluish cast) that the rest of his skin tones. It almost looks like (but I suspect is not) a product of poor circulation...

Additionally, although I am not usually a great fan of extensive tattoo work, the ladies tattoos are, IMO, quite well done and artistic - as is the pose...

Cheers, Richard .. thanks for noticing and very kind comment. I have difficulty seeing colors because I'm partially colored blind. But now I do see the magenta cast on the subject's feet now that you pointed it out. On the revision below, I corrected the hue in PS using the eye dropper on various Hue/Saturation layers. And then I applied a yellow photo filter to balance the color with the rest of the skin.

Great job... The feet match the rest of the body color now! At first I thought this was a portrait of a female but, realized that it is a male...

The more I look at your first image, the more puzzled I become with his feet color, as well as his right
hand that was altered as well with your repair. Oh well...tis still a great image!

Thanks for kind words. You are much too kind, my dear Chauncey. I too am puzzled by the colors - before and after. But what would I know - being partially colored blind.
