“ Man hair ”

Every week I say to myself that I'll branch out and find new photo subjects, and every week I end up taking photos of my boyfriend, because it's the most convenient. At least this week the topic have me an excuse :) I caught him in a natural position, and wanted to focus in on his hair, one of ...

Hey, at least your default subject is your boyfriend and not your dog... ? Love how you included his hand - really adds to the composition. This is a tiny bit close for comfort but I realize that's what you were going for! Great capture.

You've caught the texture of his hair really well, Yael! I feel like I can reach out and touch it. I might have focused more sharply on his chin than on his moustache, since that's a spot in the frame where the eye is likely to land first. Also, his hand in there is a bit of a distraction, and doesn't seem to serve a purpose. I do like the close up, more abstract shot--in spite of my small complaints, I think it's a great photo!

I really like the way the close-up turns him into an abstraction of a man. I do wish the crop had been tighter; the green wall and brown furniture in the corner do not add anything to the story. A really tight crop that was ALL him would have improved this image for me. Great way to "see" the world through the eyes of a photographer.
