Nice shot mate..I would have left more space to the left of the face..the edge of the frame is too close in my opinion. Cool

yep, totally agree, it's face needed to be more central but other than that it's good.

Thanks guys, I'll freely admit that over cropping is one of my main vices. Here it is uncropped.

Have a look here..it will give you tips on composition..very rarely do photographers centralise a subject in a pic..this explains it better http://digital-photography-school.com/blog/rule-of-thirds/

Cheers Stuart, I'll certainly read it, got the camera bug ATM and I've been playing around with Fstops and isos and white noise settings, usually to disastrous ends, but I'm getting there.

Took this as part of a project for the camera club I've joined. Taken yesterday, reasonably bright. ISO 400 F3.2 with the contrast at about 500.

This photo is exactly as taken only the size reduced to allow me to post.
