Watch the shadow in his left eye (camera right). It makes it look out of focus.

Thank you.

I like the lighting but I don't like the one eye being SO dark.

Thanks guys.
I agree about the shadow and I could have easily fixed it by rotating the model slightly so it was more 3/4 lighting than side lighting coming from the window.

"The model"?
Aren't you yourself your model?
I like the colouring ... "autumn" is right here.
And for this moment you got a cool post count, Gizmo. But that is fleeting. 777.

I always talk about myself in 3rd person if it's a self portrait
It's all about the colours and soft warm lighting
