CC CLub here,

Well, it is certainly from above. He has a handsome face!

1st Impression, it is way too small, in basic remember you can go up to 640. Use all the given space you can in shots. It is also very dark, not sure the recovery helped much as it does bring out details , but it also darkens as well. I would play with the shadows and highlights a bit, expose and offset. Your ISO is your friend in situations like this, just bumping it up would give you a faster shutter speed. Great job on the sharpness, that is spot on

This would have been a fantastic shot, if it was brighter and less small.

This is a good perspective shot. It could be just a bit brighter IMO :)
