Outstanding suit Big Man and great, as always, to see posts from you.
I have two small (and unsolicited) suggestion. One is that the trousers are a touch too long (the big break on your left leg along with the puddling at the shoe adversely effects the drape of the leg - the right leg is not as bad but still a pretty big break - the difference is either that they aren't evenly tailored or you have them hitched on your waste at different levels). Since I'm already deep into the unsolicited (but sincerely well meaning) world, if there's material, a cuff might help as it would add weight at the bottom which can be needed to help lightweight material drape properly. So I'd shorten and add a cuff if possible.
My other modest suggestions is you might want to shorten the sleeves of the suit jacket so that a little shirt cuff (1/4") shows as that gives a nice crisp and classic look to the outfit. Even if you are wearing a short-sleeve shirt now, just eyeballing it, the suit's sleeves are on the long side.
But those are just very tiny quibbles (and the easiest of all alterations) in a suit that overall looks fantastic on you. The shoulders and overall fit are great. Enjoy and wear it in good health.
