Great view, yes, it could be any of a number of emotions. Your picture would change depending on the angle of the sun - this has worked well with the shadow on the face, and contrasting background

The imposing perspective reinforces the stern look nicely. The dark background and shadows help too. All around a great shot (just as long as I don't have nightmares about it! )

Excellent Picture. No matter what the emotion is it is locked in stone for eternity. The shadow on his face and the angle of the photo adds to the stern, forbidding emotion this image provokes.
