  1. I love the first photo the most!Their weapons are so cool! I love the rim light on your additional image, nice separation of your subject from the background!

  2. Nice job with the lighting on the environmental portrait. The light may be a bit hot on his weapon in the additional image, but the rim light is nice! I'm not sure where else I would have posed your main photo, but I may have taken them away from the building a little more to show that they're doing something so interesting & different in the middle of campus. I like the angle you chose for your secondary location. I never would have guessed it was in front of the towers. Good job, Jeff!

  3. The top picture really captures a lot of personality. I like the angle of the perspective, it makes them look like warriors memorialized. The location light for the bottom picture is very dramatic and creepy. I think the black and white picture definitely adds to the mood.

  4. Love the environmental portrait! It has character! Way to light up an entire group too. Nicely done. The location shot definitely looks like it is in the middle of the woods somewhere. I agree that it is a little dark, but at the same time it goes along with the mood of the bare trees, creepy forest idea.
