Comment by ubique:
Bravo! One of just a handful of photographs in this challenge that are actually about city life, rather than merely of city life (in fact, I'm being kind; most are not even of city life, they're just photos of some thing that happens to be in a city). So, the fact that you found a way to say something worthwhile and witty about living in the city means you were already three quarters of the way to a meaningful photograph in that instant of inspiration. And such a good idea, too! The man, in business suit with his business papers trapped under his arm, gulps from one coffee cup while holding a second in reserve. No doubt the second is actually for someone else, but your suggestion (reiterated in the title, for those requiring subtitles) that he needs to be a double-barrelled coffee drinker to deal with city life, is very clever.
The actual photograph is perhaps mediocre, from a technical point of view, but I don't care about that at all. And I'm sure you don't, either. The technical shortcomings do serve a useful purpose, however; they give those voters who are not prepared to understand your photograph something to comment about.

Great shot! Big City image, yet the streets were clear, helping isolate the subject. Nice!

Exciting. Good colour and composition. I love these "stealth" kinds of photos. The blurred car bothers me, but c'est la vie.

What a great landscape. I bet in the summer this is a breath-taking location.

Nice shot with alot of great 'city' elements. I like the way you've composed this and the candid feel it has. The wide angle looks great too..... 7

Comment by puzzled:
The light is really fantastic in your photo. It glows. Beautiful colors, too. For me, the border color is too muddy - would be interested to see how an all black border (or none) looks.To continue with my input - but please take this with a grain of salt. It may have been nearly impossible to get rid of the canoe, but it makes the image seem cluttered. My eye wants to rest on the awesome trees to the right and their reflections. On the other hand, maybe you intended for the canoe to be the subject, in which case the trees clutter the canoe. Hope you get what I mean - this is a nice image.

Excellent photo... if not for the connection of the title, it would be difficult to see a tie in to this challenge.
