Nice portrait. Almost looks like snow in the background!

Hi

A nice image of this chap that certainly shows good detail and a nice subject pose.

Personally I feel compositionally more could have been made of that lovely surround. As seen I feel the image is a little too in your face and static because of that central positioning of the subject. Perhaps just taking off the 1.4 would have opened up the compositional options allowing you to be a little more creative.

But still a solid and enjoyable shot that I am sure was not easy to capture

All the best
Matthew

The light appears a little harsh and IMO a little more room at the bottom would have been nice. The legs appears to be cut off because the perceived space for the lower legs is tight.
