I gave it a 5 also. I thought it was a little soft...plus the shadow didn't do anything to enhance the photo. Maybe a tighter crop would have helped. I do like the tones though...sort of a light hint of sepia..
I liked the shot but would have preferred if it were cropped closer to the head, and maybe a little more detail as to what he is holding in his hand to give the viewer, in this case - me, a connect to the "story".
