Well, you are one handsome dude! I really like the lighting. The darker side really shows definition. My only nit is that your left arm and shoulder look so big and out of proportion with the rest of you. Maybe it is the crinkle on the top of your shoulder. The one other thing is that we all say is don't cut the top of the head. It is done a lot anyway. It doesn't bother me in your picture, but it might with others. I saw in another post someone said, when you cut the head off there, it makes me feel the head goes on forever. So cropping it lower might have helped. Well, I suppose if you cut lower, we might all think you were bald. I think it is a personal preference. It doesn't bother me though. I like it! Let's see another.(what trigger were you using?)
Edit: Would like to see in color too.
You face is sort of low key and the background is high key. They generally don't work well together. Try to keep in key....light on light and then dark on dark.
I like the shot but I do think the lighting is a bit off mostly because of the brightness to you right from the window. I would have metered that and set the camera accordingly and then adjusted your triggered strobe to light up your face properly.
