I agree with folks on the crop to portrait, slightly offset to the right I think, to avoid the centered composition...
This is a nice portrait though, your model has an interesting face, and you've got it all, with a good DOF choice, and excelent range of tones.
The head looks a little dis-embodied though, possibly a slightly ligher shirt (I think that's his sholder to the left of the neck? or more light down low to avoid having body-less head syndrome :-). That'd be my only nit-pick though, this is a solid photo...
Out of curiosity, how many lights did you use, and where are they placed? |
