the first thing i did this morning was to search the Jeb photo in this challenge, surprisingly, like Cover_Oddity says, is not a ruined building shot, but is a really good portrait that is not in a right place for me, an higher position would be better for this.

my is a poor shot that is in the middle of classification, i do not expected a better place.

Compelling portrait and composition. I really like his slanted shoulders and gentle downward cast gaze (as if a moment of reflection), though I think lack of eye contact can also be seen as a negative. I may have flipped it horizontally so he's looking in the opposite direction. I also like the busy background, though blurred enough for subject/bg separation it almost creates an environmental portrait, and an element of mystique as it makes me wonder his role/relationship. A technical issue I see is the obvious processing to burn in the overexposed highlights in his hair.
