lighting a little harsh, some details loss in the highlights. I always feel that for these type of shots , a little underexposure on the highlights portion would be good to retain detail, then use advanced processing to get detail out of the shadow areas. Tough but possible. Another alternative would be employing HDR
Also would have preferred and even more out of focus background (better bokeh)

Nicely captured candid moment. It seems goofy to focus on such a small detail, but I like how he's wearing his watch. It contributes a genuineness to the photo which I appreciate.

Quite the pensive look he has. While some people may have commented that parts of the images highlights are blown out, I dont mind them, and feel that it adds to the image.

the light is a little harsh, and the crop a little tight on the left side.

Really nice capture. I reckon the light on the hands and hat is a little distracting, but I still like it. :D
