Actually he reminds me of "Gonzo the Great" from the Muppet Show.

Tough guy.. a little more DOF would've helped, you could've stopped down a bit more, seems like you had enough shutter speed. Cool look!

Definitely Gonzo! :) I love the head on look and those eyes are great here. And the neck looks like he's straining for a better look at you. Only wish would be for a bit more DOF.

Cool perspective and works well with the motif. I like the selective focus on the eyes. This could use a bit more contrast and saturation to give it some more life.

I agree with Attila on the DOF. Love the expression.

Great angle, Jay. Funny shot. You could have gotten a few more "stops" of DOF by decreasing the SS and possibly increasing the ISO.
