Great light and choice of time. Wonderful shot

Nice - very nice

well caught and executed - not sure if the side of the face needs to be held back a fraction but a very minor point.

Attire.

The clothing make this man; the jacket looks 'alive' 'warm' and pleasingly, 'worn."

Superb candid

this is a wonderful shot, perfect composition and lighting. His pose and hands are fantastic. The white folded newspaper adds a nice highlight. I agree with Carl, perhaps just a very slight bit of dodging on the right side of his face would bring it out of deep shadow, but it's a fine photo as it is.

Very hard to do, to take a well composed, well exposed, focused shot on the sly. Lovely photograph...captures a sense of the man.
