Josh, the portrait work is very strong. You should be proud. In my opinion, however,I think that many of the images are too dark. I don't know if it's because of a poor scan of your prints, or if the prints themselves are that dark. Dark images are fine, it contributes to the mood you are tryiny to convey, but not if they are so dark that they are murky and the overall effect is to mask the image - in other words become a barrier to the viewer. Still there is a direct honest quality to the portrait work that is very appealing. On the other hand ,I don't react too strongly to the urban landscapes.(posted 8405 days ago)Keep up the great work! --Paul
