Nice profile with a fair if not great head angle. Good DOF since he's parallel to sensor plane. Some may get distracted by the specular highlights, an easy fix if it's OK with your post-processing ethics. Exposure looking good.

Thanks for sharing this one.

Hi Arsdel Agree with Fabs and can add the camera's focus point was on the shoulder not the eye area !!! Do like the image very much as presented and you got a keeper !!!

The soft light and angle look good. I agree regarding head angle and bright spots in the BG.

[Lance Peters]

like the red and green contrasting colours - Head angle is that bit off as mentioned.

Looking forward to more :)
