Default Old Man On The Street

Old Man in the Street
I saw this man on the street in Jamaica and took his picture.
I am new to digital photography using a Nikon D90 and need constructive critques in order to improve.

Default Old Man?

First off whom are you calling old. To me he has a very young face that just happens to have some grey in his beard.

Eyes look slightly unsharp/out of focus... or is it just me?

I love shots like this! Great tone and detail. Was it cropped from a larger image? If there was an original image I'd like to see how it could have been cropped differently.

It's nice as it is, just would like to see if there were other options.

Cheers!

I think it's great and thought the softness of his eyes was from cataracts or something, but it seems to add to the image for me. The only think that bugs me is the teeny tiny logo that distracts from the feel of the image.
