One of the best portraits I have seen, as Aaron said, powerful, it's just draws you in to those strong eyes ...

This is an example of superior portrait shooting. The subject is incredibly engaging - even riveting. The crop, as mentioned earlier, is ideal. Overall, this is an image that gives many of us something to shoot for in our people photography. Oh, and not to mention the fact that you had the "courage" to approach your subject - BRAVO! -Craig

I love portraits, makes you stop and imagine... what's his story, rich man / homeless man (is our human existence so different), what do the eyes say - is he a wise? is their madness beneath? is he old or middle age - the hair is wild and grey, but the eyes and skin show vitality, does he have a mission, what lessons does he have to teach...

excellent shot Aaron !!! actually I am from INDIA so I know how difficult it is to approach these homeless people and talk with them. Great work ... u r the winner man!!! I agree with Kimberly, this photo is for NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC just like Steve McCurry's famous potrait photograph of a girl from Afghan refugee camp. -JAGRUT

Simply, one of the best photos I've ever seen. And I say this after just recently looking thru scores of photos that have won the Pulitzer prize over the past century. How else can I put it? This shot is at the level of Steve Mccurry's Afghan refugee girl!

This is a winner in my book Aaron. The eyes are just awesome. I love the full frame portrait. Once you open it you just can't stop looking at this man's eyes. Wow, good luck in the next round!

What a great picture! My husband and I have a drawing over our fireplace very similar, and ironically, the man in our drawing was a homeless man as well. This is the type of picture that makes me pause and look into the eyes and wonder what his life must be like. Great photo!
