I like it. I like the intensity of the eyes and the high contrasty look works great with this! I haven't worked my way back to the earlier shots of yours, but this one is really good!
Great expression on the face. I like the composition with the empty space. High contrast look works well. Suggestion for improvement: there is a small tuft of hair at the top which is sharper than the rest; presumably you don't want to (or can't) sharpen the rest of the face so I would blur that tuft of hair a bit.
