This is a really solid sports portrait! You've done a great job finding flattering light and a background that makes your subject pop.
What's working
- ✓Excellent use of soft, flattering natural light on the face
- ✓Strong color harmony between the orange wall, the subject's hair, and the jersey
Room to grow
- The framing at the bottom cuts awkwardly through the jersey numbersmedium
- Shooting close with a 35mm lens slightly exaggerates the size of the foreground armlow
Category Scores
✓ The raised arm creates a strong triangle that leads the eye to the face
→ The bottom edge cuts awkwardly through the jersey numbers
✓ Soft, even lighting is very flattering on the face
✓ The orange brick wall beautifully complements the subject's hair
✓ Conveys a clear sense of athletic confidence
✓ Focus is tack-sharp on the eyes
→ The 35mm focal length used close up slightly distorts the foreground arm
✓ The leaning pose feels relaxed and natural for a sports portrait
→ The concept is a very traditional take on a senior/sports portrait
