I like the placement of the case vs the subject.

Nice lighting control and interesting shot. Guitar case seems more in focus than the guitarist.

Nice arrangement. Looks like a low-key portrait on a high-key background. Interesting effect. 7

A brilliantly composed and executed Contre-Jour photo. The backlight feel is very strong, while the details have been exceptionally well retained without destroying the backlight. While other strong photos have gone for the Landscape, this portrait is exceptionally well done. The border works well with this as well, as does the b&w processing.
