This is not a good photo at all, but I'm submitting it because I went though all the trouble of getting it from my dad, and standing in it sweating like crazy.

So yeah. It's bad photo, and I'm expecting a score in the lower 4s, which is okay with me.

And yeah, the cigarette isn't lit. I didn't want to have to get the suit dry cleaned before returning to my father. Yup. And my dad has one because he does charity work during christmas time, he just doesn't randomly have one. Haha.

Good pose, expression, and exectution. I'd be temped to crop out the wall on the left.

too much conflicting mood; the setting, the cigarette, the eyes

This would be a better image if santa's eyes were both clearly visible. As my mother told me constantly in Junior High, "get your hair out of your eyes, I can't see you!" Otherwise, good tones. I like the slight green of the walls. to contrast with the red hat.
