You better not be poppin' a zit there buddy! Haha, just kidding. Great shot, I love the somewhat confused and concerned facial expression (makes the viewer wonder what's going through his mind), very introspective, and good warm tones. Very good detail on the hat, skin, and I like the way your physical self in the left foreground is blurred compared to the sharp reflection. This makes for a great compo and good balance. TFS!

Hey this is good Jeremy
The composition is very compelling, attention goes to the "you" in the mirror and focuses on your eyes, just as it should.
The light coming through the window is natural but doesn't compete with the warmer glow of the interior lighting, which is suitably diffuse.
You haven't cropped any fingers or included any unnecessary details - it's a great shot!
Well done

When I first saw this my thought was gee that's how we all probably look in the mirror, looking for something.
Great angle, and the DOF,on the mirror vs yourself, is well done.
Nice clear details and it creates questions for us the viewer.
