IQ and detail in the blacks are wonderful.
I see so much detail n the blacks that I find myself looking for the same detail in the whites. I wonder if you could tease out a bit more out of the whites (reduce brightness selectively in that area in LR).If you have PS there are lots more ways.
Lovely diffuse light and I like your comp.
I personally find it very tricky to get a nice composition with this type of head shot.
Well done,
Gail
I miss these guys! Awesome details. I love the texture on the bill. Personally I would remove the few flecks under the eye. Good job overall with this portrait.
Really nice portrait. I agree with Gail that getting a bit more detail out of the whites would be great and take this over the top. Nice light and soft BG. TFS
Looks like if he would have stayed perfectly still it would have been a great subject to shoot a bracket or HDR on. You got great details in the blacks but it looks like you have almost no details in the whites, and I don't think they are there. Not sure if it's a overexposure thing or if they don't have any detail there.
Besides that, it's a striking image and very appealing. Well done
