I took this on a sidestreet in the dodgy part of Tokyo called Kabuki-cho. I really liked the feeling this image portrays. the dirt, loneliness perhaps, and suffocating city.
A big thanks to everyone who commented. You confirmed my gut feeling of posting this one!

Nice juxtaposition between smartly dressed man and what appears to be a rather dingy street. Some may not like the fact that he is oof but for me it helps bring the two different aspects together
Hmm, out of focus, or the canted angle alone may have been better, but both together I think are a little too much. I do not dislike this, but i can;t give it a better than average score
You're probably going to get decked a bit for the camera angle and motion blur in this photo, but I think they lend something to the grit of the scene.
Looks unintentionally blurry. If the wall had better lines and textures which made for a better composition, you may have pulled this off. Man's face is too dark.
I really like the feel of this shot. I also really think a good candid needs to show some emotion in the subject. The subject here has no detail. almost a sillouette. Again, really like the shot and the feel, but feel that for the challenge it would be nice to see more detail in the subject.
