I like this a lot - but I think I would crop at the third stripe on his shirt to remove some of the grey field that IMO find a little distracting, but avoiding a square which i don't think formats very well either in this case....

Very intense! I love how you brought humanity to a seemingly suffering face and pain filled soul.

I like the image and am a bit disturbed by your title. Most of your other titles are rather absolute/one dimensional. Titles, in my opinion, are an important part of the image. I might be more intrigued with the image had the title been "Oh, the stories," "Choices," "A Hard Life" or perhaps "Someone's Son." Any one of these making the subject more human. I doubt that "alcoholic" is the best decriptive of this human being. Bill Barber

Wow... Were/are you a working photographer? I feel bad about hammering you on "egg champion" as the rest of the work is quite well done.

Striking resemblance to John Brown who helped to start the US civil war.

An excellent portrait which does a great job of communicating the subjects emotions.
