I don't know the really technical art terms for it, so here goes: it looks cool, Launa.

But if I were to become a chinstroker (again), then I'd say... I like the color composition, the interplay between light and shadow, and the way you are offset on the left -- and your pose and expression. A sly, wry smile... and the glasses! The diagonal shadow suggests moment, contrasted with the horizon and the vertical pose of your body. The prominent footwear suggests a type of angular levity, whilst your hands appear to be hiding more emotion which remains to be unfurled.

How did you do that? I'd like to be put in a pose like that sometime. I am a bit aesthetically confused by the amount of space on the right (I dunno why but I get this vibe that a "LF" logo should be there, or something), but perhaps that is the intended effect. ;)
