I like the image as you have posted it. Of course, I am curious about the original.
Thank you for the information. Keep up the good work.

Hello James,
The subject was in front of a black background, something like a huge black plastic. The background was at about 20 meters away from the subject, thats why the contrast is so great. About the crop, i wanted to give a diagonal line with the hand of the subject (from the bottom right to top left). It wasnīt possible, in this conditions to capture the other hand. The picture would take another meaning and i didnīt wanted that. Thanks for your comment. Hope to receive more from you. NCard

Your positioning of the subject gives the impression that he is turning away from something (in the darkness?). I don't like Nour's crop because you lose the hands.
What were the lighting conditions that produced such a contrast between your subject and the background?

Hi there! Nour El Refai Thanks for your comment, but sometimes rules are meant to be broken :) In this case I think it works very well. The image is more opened and can breed much more than your sugestion. Thanks for your post! :) NCard

Incredible portrait with very strong colors. IMHO better with a litle more subject sharp.
