Ah ... well I cannot agree with the comment that severs this at waist level. Although that hat in this setting is initially incongruous to the point of being alarming, it's the man's comfortable stance, a sort of slouch from the waist down, that gives this photograph its durability. The hat is a certainly a curiosity, but the stance is charming! Especially as it is juxtaposed with the rigidly geometric, formal "body" formed by the column supporting the bust at the right of frame. There's a certain whimsical interplay between these three characters: the man considers the painting, the subject of the painting stares back at him (sadly, I think), and the bust lady shyly averts her eyes.
And aside from all that, the photograph simply looks good ... the processing is terrific.
(edit for spelling)

| Cut him off at the waist and play with the right hand side for interesting crop would have worked for me. Nice shot. |

I really like this photo! I don't if it would have done well for a sillouhette...it's hard to tell with the voters....but as a photo in general I really really like this....!

REally moody shot... It is wonderful... It evokes silence and concentration on art... I really like the way you got this...
VEry well indeed.
It almost looks like a painting... A keeper for sure.
