I finally figured out why I like this shot so much. You have captured, very simply, the two visible things that define a man. Ya got his eyes, and ya got his hands. I keep getting drawn between the two points. Very nice. I just hope everyone has their monitors calibrated properly otherwise you might get some 'too dark' comments...

I like this pose showing the hand and the rich blackness of the scene. Something, however, doesn't appear to be right on the uppper left. It appears as if he is hanging by his shoulder. Does the shirt or hood go above his ear? BOL
I really like your composition here. The hand in the front with the angled face further back - it's unusual and quirky and works very well. I also like the low-key nature of this image, black on black on black. It's a beautiful portrait of the individual and a great image.
