    Nice composition I like it that you made it a B&W. The floppy hat and backpack makes them look like a grave hunter.

    cool shot, nice shadows, but way too sharp...its kind of hard to look at.

    agreed - it's crispy and hard on the eyes. I like the air of adventure the clothing gives and the tonal range in the shot, but it really needs to be softer. I'd also crop some on the right as it doesn't really add to anything and it would focus eyes more on the person and there'd be less hunting about for why that much more photo was included.

    Greg, Dubbs, and Iguanamom, thaks for that. Composition I,m fine with but I've got to agree about the sharpening thing. I guess the harsh light didn't help. Heres the shot with final sharpening amount decreased to 50%
