Andy, a good subject and not composed too badly either. Everything looks ok except for the piece of paper you forgot to take out of the scene. lol, you gotta remove that dude.
The lighting is a bit hard a contrasty, but the overall composition looks fine.

Nice enough but it doesn't hold a candle to your B&Ws. I think the difference is this is "busy" and your B&Ws aren't. Plus in the B&Ws you have very dramatic lighting and this has very flat light.
