One of the best ever here.
Manual focus? well lets hope so.
This guy is an absolutely wonderful subject taking up exactly one third of the image with the remaining two thirds out of focus.
Could you "teach" composition any more forthrightly?
A golden mean?
I hope you enter this in a competition at some point because it is a slap down winner.
