I concur about the lighting. The red is too dominating and close to you, and the white (IMO) could be better used maybe lighting some fresnels or sthg...

I'm also not sure about the Cyclorama backdrop - given that most of that is dark anyway, why not use a full black?

The pose is good, although I would consider moving the camera further to the left to (a little) more of you.

It'd look great in a catalogue tho....

Edit: typo

I like your expression in this shot and your interaction with the equipment. The lighting is off in that the large red light on the left dominates - it could be cloned out or tamed down. The white light in the upper right is distracting - again cloning out would work. The strong reflections on the upper equipment are again pulling us away from your portrait. They could be toned down. I like the red lighting on you very much. It creates a wonderful mood. You may be able to crop this to create a better balanced composition. Try taking some off the left and top. I also like the perspective on this shot. Very strong and "manly."
