This is a nice shot. I like the disconnect between his eyes and the camera, making it feel more like he is in his element rather than posing...5

A couple of thoughts to improve an already good image: 1.- softer light (I realise you may have not had control of this), 2.- wider diaphragm for shallower DOF, 3.- I think this would look great in B&W (8)

he brings life in his own quiet way to this shot. would've liked eye contact with camera.

Part of me thought that this was a staged shot, rather than a portrait of someone in their environment, but then I saw the face and the expression in the eyes. Even supermodels can't get that combo of concentration and enjoyment. Well done!
