I want to start by saying that I really admire your skill and eye for photography. This shot is no exception. The atmosphere and mood that it strikes really is quite breathtaking. I love that the tilt of his head and the angle of his eyes make it look like he's searching for a work, or lost in thought. It really works. The clothing drape is very realistic and the texture in the clothing really draws me in to want to look deeper.

There are a couple of small things about the picture I do find a little jarring, though. The first, and it's a very small thing, is the part of the plant right next to Sylas' head. It, too, has an interesting texture, especially with the play of light and shadows, and when I look at the top third of the photograph, my eye keeps getting draw to it and away from Sylas' face

The only other thing is Sylas' forearm. I'm really not entirely certain what it is about it, in particular, that I find a bit jarring; it could be the angle of the arm, vs. the angle of the camera or something like that, but it just looks a little off in comparison to the rest of the photo. It might be a foreshortening issue, perhaps? I wish I could articulate this particular part better, I apologise.

It really is a lovely shot!
