 Self portrait that never made it into the Faceless challenge. An experiment in trying to capture emotion so always keen for feedback.

I think the hi key works well for what you're trying to do here. The shadow blends a bit too much with the jacket - try shooting a bit further from your background if possible, or shine a light against the background to counter the shadow. The only other thing I'd offer is that to add a bit of emotion to what you're trying to show, is to show just a bit of the face - probably just part of an eye. The body language is good, but a hint of an eye would add more emotion, in my opinion. Hope this helps. If you reshoot, post it here so we can see it.
