...made me curious to see what the pic was.

I like it, Toby. It's a cool shot with a perfect name. I like the way you used indirect lighting, rimming the hair to show form, but leaving the face a bit mysterious in shadow.

Thanks Steve glad you liked it

The first thing John (in the photo) said when he saw it was "DAMN I'm sexy..."

Well I was going to compliment it, but if I do I'm worried it might further inflate your friend's ego. Seriously, nice shot. Raz your friend a little and tell him he would only look "marginal" if he didn't have you to take dramatic photos of him.

I like the lighting. Good use of DOF to isolate the subject. Looks like you and your friend had fun making this image.

Thanks for your replies everyone

Yeah it was fun taking this photo, we took some others too but this came out the best. I havnt shot many portraits before so this was something new for me
