Headshot CC
Just shot this, going for a more contrast-y, dramatic lighting style. Any thoughts?

I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

The Sun and the Moon: Edited to add last photo
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

Light has drama but overall expression lacks it. If you want to create a dramatic portrait everything in the picture has to go for that style.
Great lighting and I like the composition, I agree with Tihomir that you need to entice a bit more expression from the subject.
nice lighting next time tell them to squint a bit.
