The toothbrush and that blurry blue line down the right side are kind of distracting...maybe cropping so it's just the frame of the mirror or something? (eh, well, I tried doing it myself but the balance felt a little off) I like how it's slightly crooked, though, and the steamy glass is definitely very effective. Very nice shot, I love the expression.

I was about to comment on the story telling aspect of this photo, then I saw gsal's comment....... see - that photo really DOES speak to us!
I like its firm grip on reality, it is honest and gritty.
Even the rather dull lighting fits the situtation. Good one!

I want to like this photo more than I am, and I'm not quite sure why. I like the mood, tone, and anonymity of the picture, but I'm not crazy about the pose. The off kilter works, but the foot doesn't quite work for me.

Hmm, I think it's because the pose isn't a terrbily strong pose. I feel like he needs to be in more of a crouching position, ready to spring and run if need be.

Just my humble two cents.

Good work!

The dark brooding light really works. That mask - I'm shaking with fear.

I should have known. When you use a rebel and the infamous 50mm 1.8 you always get superior imagery.

Brilliant.
