Yes my first thoughts were that there is a good photo there but it just needs a little more contrast and sharpness.
I think I may have used a fraction less sharpening on his cheeks and forehead than Willie's edit, but that is quite close to being a perfect photo now.

I felt your image was flatter than your previous work. I felt the man's face did not stand out against the background. However, you have again managed to get your subject to strike a powerful pose. The image gives us an insight into the man's personality.
I think Willie's suggestion does bring out the facial features of the man. Although I might not have gone so far with the adjustments - but that is a matter of personal taste and choice.
But, it remains clear that you have a great talent for photographing people in a way that shows their natural character.

Donald,
That it is why I said that the photos quality is not the same always. Photography is just my hoppy when I can have some time for it with very simple equipments (Nikon d5000 and 18-55mm kit) even has no motor to run AF for most lenses.
For the photography talent, I still have a doubt when comparing my work with other members of the Omani photography club but you support me so thanx.
