My friend's are the best haha.

this is great man, nice quality, good work on the broken lens/glass.

my only complaint is that if he is throwing a punch that has the power to break whatever it is he is breaking, i would like to see alittle more emotion on his face.

other than that this is AWESOME, really good work mate

The background would be disjointed and out of line through the glass but otherwise this is nice.

as I said, not how i imagined it, very creative :)

Good shot, but there are a few minor nitpicks. One being the lack of glass distortion. Some others would be his footing. His feet dont look really steady, and his knees are bowed towards each other. I'd like to see this done with a telephoto, so that it would be more of a mid shot. Then focus on capturing just the fist and facial expression. If you're at a tighter-in crop, you'll bring more focus to the action and really force the viewer in.

That's all just me though. The way you shot this, it looks excellent.

The shot is excellent along with unmatched lighting, but as necro said, the pose is a little bit wavering. I would love to see something more tough base, Ethically you cant punch this hard when your feet are bent. One leg should be straight.

other than that the photography is excellent.

one more thing to note:
a subject is more intimidating to the viewer when shot from a lower angle. this is because the subject looks more powerful if we have to stare up at them. staring down gives us a feeling of being stronger or having the advantage.

haha yeah thanks for that guys. I agree with you on the glass distortion. would have been fun to have gotten that but i didn't want to danger his hand or wrist; so photoshop it was.

and the emotion was KILLING me. He would not stop smiling!! Its ridiculous. i was threatening to punch him to stop him from smiling. haha, didn't help that my friend calvin was messing with him.

Necro: yeah i didn't really think of the psychology of the angle. I need to think more about that next time. Thanks

Thanks for the Cnc guys :)

Nice stuff papa

i think the glass effect is amazing!
And the colour and realism is amazing too.
So nice work
