I've had a hiatus from photography this year, and during this time I watched a fantastic TV series called Hannibal. In my opinion, this image encapsulates the kind of cinematography and filters used by the producers and director.
If you haven't watched the show, I highly suggest doing so, the food is just to die for...

Not much editing done, basic sharpening and adjusting of contrast in photoshop. The colours are original from the shot.

Enjoy the image, and have a wonderful 2016.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Wow, Max! This is an intriguing image!

The colors, the detail, the empty background... all lead to mystery and intrigue.

I've not seen the series Hannibal, but... I like this style.

I agree with your commenter that the composition could be a bit better. I'd have taken a bit off the left... and added a bit to the right to make the viewer "see" what the model is seeing... and imagine what he's seeing.

I love the detail of your model and the glasses. The hairs and the skin texture... amazing!

I think what messed up your score is that... the mystery... the tension of the viewer trying to see what the model is seeing... and yet... there's no way to see it... the background is blank (which I've already said I love, but it adds tension). The tension doesn't match the challenge topic of CALM.

That's my opinion. I love the image for so many reasons... but not for this challenge topic.

I can't wait to see your next entry!
