Thanks for figuring out the photo of Spirit of Christmas. It was supposed to depict an emptiness, as well as the rush of people during the season who are so intent on empty shopping, that they can't even spend a moment viewing such scenes as this one. The sunset and the lights were just so beautiful. My choice of green highlights in the sky was also a creative endeavor to create a unique atmospheric happening that most, if not all, miss in their rushing about.
An interesting photo given the title - to me it looks kinda empty, with the one human walking away. Like either the spirit of Christmas hasn't quite got there yet, but the place is all ready and just waiting for it to arrive.
the horizon is tilted, the scene is very busy. the man walking out of the frame does not add to the photo at all. try different and interesting angles and closely examining every element in the frame before taking the shot.
