Recommendations: This pic would benefit from moving the subject out of the center. It wouldn't have hurt to move the camera a bit to your left so that the background was a bit cleaner. The bamboo is a bit distracting.
I very much like the contrast being in the subject as opposed to the actual coloration of the shot. There seems to be a bit of an oversharp look - ie the speckles on the persons face. As a nit, it also looks like you can see the JPEG compression (look closely for blocky/noisy regions in the black regions of the bandana.)
