for a portrait, the face of the subject is normally seen. This to me looks more like a candid than portrait

This is a nice shot. At first glance from the thumbnail I couldn't figure it out because the mans hair blends into the background. At full size I still enjoy the image although it still would be nice to have something less distracting behind his head. JMO of course. You should do well with this. Good luck in the challenge.

Now this is just what I expected to find in this challenge.....
This is really great, and it so suits the "enviromental" challenge so very well.....
