The position of the light is very good, just like the POV. I would have chosen a different background though; possible a featureless one to give the photo an even more artistic feeling. Still you did do a very good job.

I doubt we'll ever see anything this artistic on the cover of men's fitness, but people are telling me the same thing about my shot, and I've decided I'm not interested in shooting magazine cover styled shots anyway, so I'm not penalizing for overly artistic shots on anyone else's either. I think this is a great shot, and it does fit your magazine quite well. The lighting and shadows are excelent, I like how only the form of his face is visable, and we don't see his actual face. And those muscles show quite nicely. Great work. 9

Very good picture. Cover shot? I'm not sure. I think they like more studio stuff for that magazine. Don't they?

Drat - this would have placed much better in the next challenge, the low key one, than it will as a magazine cover.

I'm going to pretend you meant "Men's Fitness" or something like it.

Although this does show off some amount of the fitness, I am dubious sucha magazine would use a black and white photo or leave the abs in such shade. Usually they're all about in your face pictures that qualify as goals to attainment. The angle/placement isn't the issue, note, except as in regards how hard it is to make out the details on the left side.
