Suri, Estoy muy orgulloso de ti y tus resultas con este photo. (tal vez un poco celoso tambien) Espero que esto te dice que tienes el ojo para esto. (algo que me falta) y con practica y fuerzas puedas lograr mucho exito. Como te digo siempre...Abilidad sin disciplin no se sierve. Y siempre tengo razon.. ;)
Lighting seems too harsh in the bottom half of the image, and i personally feel the image screams for more texture. Perhaps shooting without flash, introducing grains, etc would have created a moodier and more effective shot.
This is an interesting shot except for the minor bit of something sticking up in the bottom left corner and brightness at the near side from the flash. I think you made a good choice going black and white.
