I love the tight crop and the DoF.

The lighting in general is good, except for the mixed colours. The combination of bluish, white and yellowish highlights is a bit distracting. If it wasn't correctable in post, you should have gone with B&W (maybe recover the color on the red elements afterwards). Unless, of course, the mixed lighting was your intention. A bit more microcontrast/structure/clarity would have been nice, as well.

All in all, a solid take on the camera portrait challenge.

Love that I wanted to figure out what the reflection was!
