Very nice shot. I like the way his hair is the same colour as the steam. And he has a quizzical look on his face. I wonder what he's doing with that right hand.

By his expression, it looks like he's wondering "What the H....is that!" Grin

Good capture Richard, he looks in deep thought like he's trying to gauge something.
