The person sleeping in the background is kinda funny I didn't notice him at first.
I like the picture. To me it gives a feeling that you can't sleep because you're thinking too much.

The edit is great! I like all of the different colors.
And the person sleeping in the background is funny, as Exiztence mentioned.

Great picture Tyler, it has its own story and good posture and expression of yours. I especially like the cluttered elements all over the frame, they add a sense of interest and remind me of college somehow

i actually like the tilt and the person in background, they add to the mood, i would go a step further and tilt even more !

I love the DoF it adds a nice story to the picture. I think the boxes behind you are a little bit distracting but it doesn't bother me that much... Overall a nice portrait!
