Wanting to convey concentration and stillness here, this is particularly why I have focused on the man rather than the rifle. Yes the man is me, I set the shot up and my Dad took it.

It may require zen on the part of the shooter, but the photograph is not zen-like or soothing to me. On the plus side, good focus on the eye of the shooter. The wall and plants behind are a bit distracting.
you're having a laugh obviously; no one seriously thinks blasting cute furry animals with a big massive gun comes close to even a wild approximation of the concept of zen. harmony? technically i feel the picture is a little claustrophobic, and the lighting feels harsh... 3.
A lot of people won't get this idea, cus they've never lived it and can't understand it. It's a good idea, but I would have been a little more careful with my background and the clothing on the model. Kinda looks like a city setting with that wall behind the model. A sniper, maybe?
