And the winner is

This was tough...

But

#1 is dilorenzo Your right I didn't say human....GREAT shot

#2 perryge reminds me a little of a famous Karsh portrait

#3 Chandler Would have been #1 but the contrast is a little high.

A couple of honorable mentions.

sf1 if it had only a different crop would have been in the in the top 3. To dead center for me but I almost put it at 3 because the personality almost over came the composition.

monty the eyes almost had it...

Kaya a little more contrast is needed.

MSJGD eyes are fantastic but I found the mexx co a little distracting and to much dead center for me.

Thanks everyone good job and congrats to Ed....GREAT SHOT.
