I'm sorry, Miguel,

I sometimes forget our slang isn't universal. As the others suggested, I really like the photo because the subject looks tough, and self possessed. I like the way the focus is broken up between his hand and one eye; it seems to underline the message, for me. Very interesting work.Sorry for being so cryptic.

Love it. The use of selective focus is used very well.

Haha, this is great. I love how it looks like the cat is growing out of his body! Everyone has to wrestle with their inner demons, but this guy has an outer cat to fight as well.

Very nice image and I like the way you've used the camera in a way that wouldn't ordinarily be done.

I guess this is an environmental portrait.
