I don't know what a high key photo is, but I'm beginning to figure it out. He has gorgeous eyes for sure.

Nice pic...but I wonder if it would be more appropriate to refer to the technique as 'high contrast' rather than "high key"? I'm not a semanics nut but there seems to be a wide a range of highlights to shadow atypical of high key shots.

To be clear, it's a very nice capture!
