Nice image. I would have loved to see better what is holding in his hands.

Those are some unique specs. Good angle and good choice of B&W. Contrast is a little high, but then you may have wanted that considering the title.

i do not consider this an interesting photo.
if you wanted to show what that optical instrument is used for, meybe this was not the bestaç angle since it does not help to figure out what he is seeing , i mean what he is holding with his hands.

I must admit, picking locks are tons of fun. This one is pretty fun and different. I mean how many people do you know that has those kind of glasses? Great idea and nice big and sharp picture. Good job.

I'd like to see a bit more of his hands and to have them in focus with more depth of field.
