Something to aspire to, but I don't think I'm ever going to get here. Outstanding photo.

I absolutely love this shot. The earth tones, textures and grain add an element of grit to the photo and his expression does the rest. I'm drawn to his face and eyes. The composition is genius and the processing job is brilliant. I expect to see this near the top of the challenge results!

I'm a wee bit disappointed you did so much post-processing on this shot - I think it probably spoke for itself. Anyway, I do like it and I hope you post a more natural version in your profile after the compo is over.

Where to start....The colors are all dark and grungy adding to the feel and mood of feeling desolate. There are textures present in this photo that makes your eyes explore and "feel' this man's 'environment' The green steps and the brick wall are dirty, gritty - which is the feel and mood of this photo. But what really arrests the viewer is the man looking at the camera. His ice blue eyes drown us in a sea of sorrow and despondancy as we look upon his face that speaks of homelessness...
