I like the first one, Theo. I really like the expression on his face, as if to say, "you mean it's my shout?".

thank you very much bob

The second one is fun but the first is full of drama. It's a great portrait. I wonder how it would look in black and white?

That second one is tops! The lighting, colour, composition and expression of the guy is fantastic! Actually it reminds me of an advertisement that was on TV but can't remember what it was for.

I also like the second, really POPs!

I think the first one is actually quite over-shopped! It's a bit too obvious that you've been messing around with darkening certain areas, like you were going for the Andrzej Dragan look but didn't quite get there - feels a bit flat.

Your treatment of the second image on the other hand is fantastic.

many thanks guys for your comments
