Not a street kinda person, but ya know this is very awesome. Just makes me wanna go up and talk to him. Love it that it is black and white...

I do have to say this is one of my favorite street images that I have seen in a long time! I am not a portrait kinda person either. Enough to add it to my favorites :-)

Intriguing stories thorughout - I especially like the young man's bright-eyed avoidance of the couple against the wall. And I see there are still a lot of smokers in the midwest. Not so many out here anymore.

Elegant, subtle and minimal. The contrast in textures between the rope and all the hard surfaces really works here.

Not only abandoned but forbidden, as per the rope and signs. And so the somber tint handily furthers the point. What I really like about this image is the composition of squares and (other) rectangles comprising the entry. It looks like a quilt that's anything but gay. But it brings a bit of order to the scene.
