I was drawn by the strong shapes formed by light and shadow, which seem to lend drama and a confrontational element to this portrait. Shot in natural light.
Ahhh - now I understand - you didn't need to tie him down, you'd drugged him first!
It's a nice shot - technically especially, but he does look a little erm laid back?
kind regards

Thank you Albert. I deliberately aimed for blown highlights this time, as sometimes breaking the rules makes an impact, so I'm glad you feel it works for you.

Nice extremes contrast here. Lots of emotion in that eye. I struggle with accepting "blown" parts of images but it works here for me. - Albert
