Don't you get soap all over your t-shirt? ;-) I like this - there's a pure ordinariness about it, a refusal to pander to the ideas of DPC's clean set-up photography; and also a sense - because of that lack of pandering, probably - of the genuinely real. I like the crowdedness of this space too - it feels, with the collections of bottles, the precarious towel stack, like a real person's bathroom. And for all that, it's plainly obvious that this must actually be a set-up idea. I like those paradoxes, and the result.

would have preferred a closer crop - the items on the counter are distracting

This seems more of a candid than a portrait. If he had been looking at the camera...Also, the environment doesn't tell me much about him. I do like the image - not your typical portrait/candid - but feel it is weak for THIS challenge.

crop right in to the mirror - you have nice angled lines, but the chrome strip on the right does nothing for you, and the white wall isn't helping with your story. I think the backward print on the shirt and the shower curtain (well, with the shaving of course) is all you need for environment and the story behind it. 4

existential is some way - -I like the idea but a closer crop and rotation might speak more loudly.
