A stark and sad street portrait but well done. Too bad the pole is in the shot - I guess cropping it out would keep the bench out of the center.

Outstanding. Your composition perfectly captures his isolation and creates a lot of mood. I think the pole works well in the image because it acts as a bookend with the opposite tree, thus framing the bench in the middle. He is off to the side of the bench which additionally adds some tension. Great shot.

very good, very interesting shot. I enjoy the visual tension between symmetry and asymmetry.

I dont know, but I am tempted to say that this picture is stighly over blown( probably not over exposed).

The pant leg in the sock adds poignancy to this shot. Also the shadows from the tips of his shoes makes him look like he is levitating a bit. Good shot, great mood.
