Aperture: f16

 The focus was soft, so I had to go with a high-grain approach to salvage this. It's 11:48 right now, so no time to reshoot.

Crop, NI, resize, grain, save for web.

It's a great shot with good lighting and good pose. The noise just takes something away though. I do very much like the overall character of the photo. 7

if the grain is on purpose, then no problem, if not- run the pic through neat image or noise reduction.

I like the way you've used red in this image. Seems a little unsharp though, over-compressed?

Nice portrait. The clothing adds a lot of interest, both the red scarf and the texture of the jacket.

Nice shot, Sam. Love the light and the splash of red. Touch noisy, but not bad.
