The first is gorgeous. I would totally use that for painting.

I could imagine the first one in B&W. It would have the beautiful blacks with crisp white highlights. the composition is great also. love it.

#1, beautiful. It's a grabber. Great contrast,sharpness, light, and composition. I agree with B&W conversion too.
#2 is hurt by the BG distractions and that one FG item to the right. Now if he would have had a fish in his mouth...

Great shots and nice even lighting and warmth. I like the bottom one a lot. The background doesn't bother me (it's quite out of focus), but I agree with Ed that it could be distracting to some. The top one is very good though I wish he was looking more at you. Alas, I think both are portfolio level work. Successful hunting.

I really like the first one also. The lighting and the composition are very good. I like the look of concentration, Jeff
