Sharp eyes, shallow DOF, nice crop and the image has interest of it's own. Nice one Paul.

As pschlute and Karl have said great image, Good use of DoF. The only small negative comment I would make is the crop is cutting off the top of his LH eyebrow which I find makes it look a little strange, but that could just be a personal thing

Thanks guys.
BTW, this is not a crop, its the full frame image that was taken.
I did think the same as you PaulM, but I think the angle of the shot justifies it. Thanks.

The 'crop or not' makes it more interesting....it brings his face into the picture.

Agreed.you are master in catching the eyes.
And also in cropping the foreheads. You do it in a lot of your portraits and it works (whether in camera or in PP). It's something that is difficult to do right, IMO.
