Simply delightful!
Awesome lighting, great expression and set up, and love the water beads around his face.
What's your set up on this one? Do you have your own little studio?

Very fun, but a few things are drawing my eye. There's some digital noise especially along the thermometer. Might just be a resizing issue tough to tell. Also, the black background doesn't make much sens, yes you wanted to show the "steam" but in reality your face and glasses are enough. To me the "steam" (seems like dry ice) is actually quite distracting and cartoonish. I think this same image shot in a high key (white background) would give the feeling of being a steam room or shower and not steal the thunder from the great facial features in the image. I might also consider shooting it from an angle with tee face a touch either above or below the camera and slightly cocked to the side. Fish eye distortion could even be very cool here.

Cool shot for the challenge ! I agree with truth on the noise or artifacts on the thermometer ..the only thing I could add maybe is some steam/misty--ness on the glasses to give more steam effect - they look too clear to be in so much steam
good luck !

It instantly brought a smile to my face, and the lighting is excellent.
