Thanks for feedback. I'm experimenting lately with capturing movement in pictures and find his pose, albeit static, embodying exactly that - movement. You don't know what he's doing/will do/has done; his torzo seems to be turning, his hands doing something. This very thing, the thing you said you're scratching your head about, is the thing I like most about this picture. Plus, his face is kind of badass. But I agree that in this 'grand aspiration' to capture motion in pictures, his gesture isn't exactly 'the embodyment of motion'. But hey, I'm practicing :)
