I think you fall into a slight trap here of just finding a subject and centring it, rather than finding a subject that benefits from being centred. Whilst there is some interest in framing him against pure grass, and the very slight leading lines of the cut pattern help, there isn't enough to suggest a demand for a centred composition. Technically accomplished though - and perhaps there are things here the British eyes miss. 5

Good idea, but doesn't really hold my interest. I think more smoke from the cigarette would help.

Nice simple habits shot, I would like it though if the focus were on the cigarette more. Good job overall..

poorly framed, rotate left with cig in left bottom corner and include whole ashtray perhaps?

Comment by daisy77:
thanks all. for anyone interested, this is a photo of a building in NYC. i was in a taxi, late to meet a friend, and saw this fly by...glass facade with shiny protrusions. i told the cabbie to stop (10 blocks from my destination) jumped out and started photographing the facade from as many angles as i could. i chose this shot because it had the most "abstract" feel. this was a fun exercise: it's harder to find abstractions than i thought it would be.
