Ooo yum! I think you need to rotate it a bit to make it straight. Draw a line between the two points of the rim to see whether it is straight or not. It tips to the right now.

Not quite sure I consider this an "EXTREME close up". I do think the shot it ok though. Focus and clarity seem good, and lighting is alright as well. The background to the upper right of the cup seems to have something strange going on with it, and I wish the lines were lined up with the photo. ~Heather~

Perfectly exposed - whites white - blacks black - beautiful saturation in the colours.
Lots of commercial potential.
If I was still selecting for publication I would use this but crop on the right to get rid of the white. Although it means losing the back of his head - his face is still dominent and strong enough to crry the picture

Comment by carlosmfernandes:
the model expression is a key contribution to the final result. I probably would choose to show more wall to help the whole composition.

I'm not sure all of the space under the chalkboard is necessary. Then again, the composition kinda feels more balanced the way you have it. Great candid shot, in any case.

I kind of like this one...I'm not sure if it's on purpose or not (because it has the qualities of a snapshot), but it really makes me feel like I'm back in school. It has that personal impersonality to it, it's a tad cold, it almost immediately bores me. I am giving this a 5 because for the type of photo that it is, it's pretty good...

There's nothing tremendously exciting or "WOW" about it, but I still like this shot a lot. It's very simple, yet conveys an expression of someone who is passionate about teaching. I gave 'er an 8.
