i don't know anything about portraiture, so i'm using your image as a guinnea pig as to what i think i would or wouldn't do in this situation, as well as what i notice and get out of your image.

i have an idea as to what you where after capturing the reflection (i tried something very similary, but it just didn't work out). i think the motion blur and soft focus take away from being able to see who you really are. i think in portraits, the elements of the image should all support the subject, and not provide unnecessary distractions. while the mouse & keyboard convey who you are, the wall & door behind most definitely distract. i think this might work from a slightly different perspective where the image isn't so evenly divided in the middle. this is certainly one to revisit. nice effort!
