Stephen,
It's great to meet you and your work. I find this a very very subtle composition with the little spots (sorry to name them so) both dark and light. I don't know if this is an unusual comment, given there's strong contrast between the horizon zones. I find this portrait composed and thoughtful. #1135621

This is a scanned photo and probably not a great job in PS in trying to clean it up. This is actually my first attempt back in 1991 to try any type of photography. I didn't really get the bug until 2005 with my first digtal camera. I do appreciate the comment's Marilyn. Thank You. #7586367
