I really like this, fantastic in B & W, I think having the eye half covered makes it even more mmmmm, what can I say, devilish, put it this way, I wouldn't want to meet you on a dark corner with a look like that in the shadows, I'd run screeming for help. Great Picture...Josie

Definately an atmospheric shot, but I think I would prefer just a touch more detail in the eye shadows, maybe just a small glint to show that there is something there? Love the textures and tones.

Hi Andy,
great image mate. I can see that the focus and DoF were all within range. I feel that the slight under-exposure has added to the feel, and I personally like the way you are immerging from the shadows with a dark menacing look. This all adds to the final impact. Maybe a little catchlight in the eye to give more life, but great shot.

I was applying to be a tooth fairy and had to include an 'emergence' shot on my CV
Thanks for the crits guys...more detail in the eye is general feeling. I am learning!
I thought the pic was awful to be honest and I ws not happy at all with it. This is one for the back shelf to come back to.
Thanks again.

try to give yourself a break dude.. your stuff is good and you know it..

I agree Andy.
Besides, he will never be the tooth fairy. Who will ever believe in a tooth fairy with no teeth? It's like asking a fat dietritian for a slimming plan.
