the hand is distracting and looks unbalanced with the cropped picture...

Why would it need to be validated? Bonus points for no annoying reflection on the glasses :) Good shot.

This is a very nice portrait. I think that the angle and framing/cropping are good, and the focus is good as well. The only thing that bothers me a bit are the horizontal lines going through the dark areas on the left of the photo. You did an excellent job photographing glasses without glares or reflections. Very nice. ~Heather~

This image is true to itself and the rules it has established for itself. The tones, lighting and expresson on the face all work well together.

The expression on your face really makes this photo captivating! Looks almost like a smirk, like the viewer is in on some joke with you and everyone else is "on the outside" of it. The glasses/string on wrist tell something about your personality, give this an artsy feel. If the contrast were bumped up slightly, I'd like it even better. But it's great as-is!
