I like the levels of being from bottom to top. I can envision an empty (but serene) hell, a vibrant earth, and a star-bright heaven. 9

From the outside looking in. Very good shot and I love the shadows created by the tables and chairs in front of the coffeehouse. That alone makes this good shot excellent.

It's almost like the man is sitting in the restaurant alone, it's only when you closely look that you can see the other people in there, I think this picture is fantastic!!

would have been better without the hydrant. maybe could've burned it down a bit. same with the hanging lights in the cafe. I love the way he's the only patron lit up.

the strung lights is very interesting to me. though, your main subjects have trouble holding my attention

Wow, great work. I love the line of white squares on the right side of the picture. The symmetrical chairs are also a nice touch. If it were a little brighter it'd be really striking, maybe bring out the people in the cafe a little more. and really make the chairs stand out.
But wonderful capture!

Outside looking in. Nice composition and I like the extra details outside - the and tables, the fire hydrant and the lines on the road. The inside is intriguing too - great effects from the ceiling lights and just shadowy details of most of the people bar the man on th right who seems to be in his own spotlight. Lots to look at here, very interesting.
