Greetings from Andi via the Critique Club

First Impression: As your first attempt at a high key portrait I think you did well. Not sure about the glass but think I understand why its there - maybe milk would have helped your 'white' theme?

Composition: A strong composition with the subject off centre allowing the white to flow in from the left

Tecnical: Yup, its high key yet you managed to hold detail in the white of his jacket well, loving the catchlight in his eyes.

Artistic: Its not an instant masterpiece but think you handled this shot well and its a good portrait.

Overall thoughts: Am still thinking the water let you down a little as it doesn't lend anything to the image imho.
