Composition




Wanted to solicite your thoughts on this photo, primarily composition. Most portraits I see the subject is located in the center of the painting or right of center. I wanted to position the subject left of center while extending his arm to the right to create a bit more balance. What about the negative space to the upper right? Should there be an object there? I was trying to avoid that and just focus on the portrait. Should I add more negative space to the left side?

I look for ward to your thoughts! Thanks!
