This is a new comment series for me, so please bear with me while I find my style!

This is one of my 9s - I like it a lot. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:

1. Excellent bold close up portrait. Ring flash? I really like the strong highlights and the cool coloration.

2. His expression is compelling - a slightly wry smile. I wonder how long you took to get this so absolutely front on. His median sagittal plane is pretty much exactly perpendicular to the sensor.

3. It's a great crop too - intersecting the hat logo and neckline draws attention to and emphasises his face.

Overall, a standout portrait.

I like the tight composition and the fact that you included that bit of hat for some context. Only thing that bugs me is those creepy, alien-looking catchlights. Guessing it's from ring lights. Maybe you intended him to look that way, but if so I'd have gone with a different sort of title.

Nice job not overdoing the saturation, adds to the starkness
