Greetings from Andi via the Critique Club
First Impression: Meets the challenge well, I like the composition and the oof background. Nice sharp focus on the eyes but the rest of his face is a little soft.
Composition: I think you have a strong composition and I quite like the bright light on the bottom left however the yellowish bright spot bottom right is a little offputting for me.
Tecnical: I see you went to a workshop to shoot this and am guessing lighting from below was part of the course? Its not the best angle for lighting a portrait however I think it works quite well here. I think the exposure is a off as (on my monitor) your subject looks a little jaundiced. Some catchlight to bring out his hair detail would help this I think.
Artistic: I think you have approached this portrait shoot well and I like the fact the model is at an angle to the camera yet looking down the lens, it adds interest to the shot.
Overall thoughts: I quite like this shot as a portrait and feel it may be a bit 'run of the mill' for the dpc voters. I think it place about right at just above the challenge average.

| really nice shot. Nice and sharpe and the eyes stand out. Try recropping it to loose some of that space to the left to loose that light in the and to concentrate your eyes on the subject. A third should do it. |

| I think you could have benefitted from better light. Lighting from below isn't that great for this shot. |
