This is more of a nitpick, but why isn't the rest of him muddy? Could you have shot it from an angle that wouldn show only his face?
I like the composition though. I think the line from the shoulder leads nicely into the face. I wonder if you could have got any more light on his eyes? DPC really like eyes that are lit up. Overall, well done.

Comment by Kavey:
Great idea! I think it would have worked even better if the upper torso were also covered in mud - the hairy skin detracts somewhat from the "muddy" face. The composition works well. I'm not about the lighting - seems a touch too dark and orangey to me.

Wanna know the first thing that popped into my head? Mud looks to "organized", especially around the eyes and nothing on the shoulders? Take a look at Kiwiness´s self portrait, the one where he put the mud on him and you should get what I mean. Had you closed the eyes and put mud over then and opened and had it all over the shoulders too this would have been so much more visually compelling. Not close to being a bad photo cause of it, just that is what can set a part a good photo from an excellent one :) Like it, dig the lighting, think the WB is a bit too warm for my taste but good work.

Man, how long did it take to get that off your ears. I haven't heard that album in years.

Well done technically. I might've tried cropping it much tighter and just trying to concentrate on the face itself.

Comment by posthumous:
the composition is derivative of Pedro. It would be interesting to see you come up with your own composition for this shot.
