I really like the pose and how your camera is almost level with the gardener's head. If he had turned his head to more face the camera (or alternatively, if you had moved further to the left, if that was possible), this would be a much stronger shot, because then his eyes would be visible, and that's whas the viewer usually connects with.
Rats! I love this photo, but for the cigarette! The pose, the colors, the subject matter.... But I'm having an emotional response to the pollutant quality of your model. I know you probably didn't have a choice in this, but.... Anyway, the daylight is awesome...
Plant color is very good, but the man's nose is RED, arm is pink and blurred. I don't know what to suggest, keep trying, it's almost there! Photo 7 Creativity 8 People 7 total 7
Good framing, nice colors. I like the color of the watch, the man's face and hair. The brim partically obscuring the face puts attention on the hand with its curved fingers, which is interesting.
