Greetings from Andi via the Critique Club
First Impression: Meets the challenge well, I like the composition and the oof background. Nice sharp focus on the eyes but the rest of his face is a little soft.
Composition: I think you have a strong composition and I quite like the bright light on the bottom left however the yellowish bright spot bottom right is a little offputting for me.
Tecnical: I see you went to a workshop to shoot this and am guessing lighting from below was part of the course? Its not the best angle for lighting a portrait however I think it works quite well here. I think the exposure is a off as (on my monitor) your subject looks a little jaundiced. Some catchlight to bring out his hair detail would help this I think.
Artistic: I think you have approached this portrait shoot well and I like the fact the model is at an angle to the camera yet looking down the lens, it adds interest to the shot.
Overall thoughts: I quite like this shot as a portrait and feel it may be a bit 'run of the mill' for the dpc voters. I think it place about right at just above the challenge average.
