Did you give it a special pp treatment Theodoros? It looks kind of unreal. Don't tell him but he looks a bit like a criminal! Great detail but the bottom half of him looks sharper than the eyes. Was this deliberate?

This is a very strong composition and a striking shot. I like it. I'd be interested to see how it looks with the eyes lightened up a little bit, so that they are not completely black. It may not be any better, but it's just an idea.

Cheers

Thanks a lot guys for your kind words!

This is the original image :

With little bit lightened up eyes :

Focusing at the bottom half of him gives better "criminal feeling",
but personally, i find the eyes very sharp too.

Many thanks again!

Thats really good editing mate. Didn't go over the top and gave the face a hell of a lot more character.

Great looking result
