A nice picture, though it does have a washed out feel to it... perhaps cutting the exposure down a bit,would have a cut some of the light out and make the picture a darker contrasting image, or adjusting the contrast brightness levels in PS or equivalent...otherwise a good pic.
I do find it a bit washed out from being a bit bright.
The one I submitted is a bit bright too, but only realized after and I have now calibrated my monitor again.
Anyway, hope that you will be able to fix whatever making it a bit bright.
colours (well the darker shades of grey) seems far too washed out to me - i think the glare from the source of light on the left is a bit over-bearing. definition also appears a little fuzzy. having your model step aay from the light a bit, and a jiggle with contrast / brightness might help. regrettably, i'm not sure that the background suits your guy - sitting at an outdoor cafe in Paris might help (though admittedly given a number limitations might not have been possible). 4.
