It looks like there is a blemish on the top of your head in the upper left part of the photo. There doesn't seem to be any texture there. Otherwise you look great. 7

Nice focus on the eyes, I'd like if the background were a bit more oof.

Great focus, from the camera and you! I'd be tempted just to stand a foot away from the wall just to throw it out of focus a little to really make your face stand out.

Handsome... but I'd like a bit more 'room' for you to be in ... it's too tighly cropped or composed, I think. I like the sharpness. (not voting yet)
