Just fantastic. His expression adds a huge amount of interest to the shot, leaving me wondering what he's looking at. My favorite of those I've voted on, and adding to my faves list.

LIke this, nice lighting, good compliment to diagonals on backdrop. NOt too sure about the eye color though, looks a bit over cooked.

I love the eye color. Is that a true color or enhanced somehow? I like that you used the background to bring out all the blues.
