TJ,
I am surprised that no one has commented on this compelling photograph. And I haven't seen your work before, please post more.
I keep coming back to ithis one and thinking about how it might be rendered in a more dramatic way. Not flambouyant but with more detail and contrast in the foreground. I don't know what the raw image looked like, but I would be thinking about opening the shadowed areas, particularly on the left, a doing a bit of dodging on the near foreground, with a little midtone contrast bump.
Best,
-Nat
