I’m very happy with the progress you are making here. You’ve absolulutely nailed this assignment.
The image has a relatively wide tonal range that is skewed toward the black end.
What’s more the image itself is interesting. It never hurts to photograph something amazing like that! I posted a photo of a tiger I took recently as well:

Can you tell I like adding people to my images?! 😉
I really like the mood and drama of your image though.
My only concern is what’s going on in the top left of the image.
Was this image shot through a window and if so, did you use a filter to remove the reflection 😉
