A little more contrast might have helped, but great focus and capture of textures.

This is scoring highly for me almost against my better judgement - the flat lighting lets the shot down I think. However, there is an insant connection with the subject (if only he was looking into the camera!) and as such is automatically one of the stronger images in the challenge. Well done.
