This is a very interesting picture. The look says he's angry but the title and the hat implies fun and gaity. Also his ethnic idenity is a bit baffling. Subject is not clear and that's good. It makes you look at the photo more than once (or twice). B/W conversion is well done and composition is good. You cropped or shot just right..... showing a little hat but emphasis on his face, features and mood. Now I will say what I notice most people on this site say....."Good job, excellent, nice picture...etc".

Thanks for the detailed critique, Cooki (both of them)and your comment too Googley. Much appreciated.
This youngster was doing some busking at a local folk festival. This is just one look that he tried on while I was taking his photo. I beefed up the grain etc when I converted it to b&w.Focus on the positive!
