Entirely undeserving of the place it got, one of the top 5 for me

nice moody lighting... i will tell you what i don't like... the bit of something all the way to the right.. i would have cropped it out... also, the top foot looks really blocky and strange. still a good shot

underlit in my eyes. I'd have liked to see more of the facial/head area, but nicely composed otherwise

Returning for comments.
This is a classic pose and the selection for sepia gives it more character. There is one minor problem with the angle of the light and its distribution. This is very common with single lights. Look at the knee and the eye receives no help to discern the detail of the joint and the patella. This is solved by gently moving the light slightly about to find the best form. If it is a self portrait then you chalk-up your sitting place and rotate slightly for each take. You may need 20 or 30.
Bumping to 7 because the composition is superb.
