Avg vote, I like the lighting and dof, a tighter crop may have helped frame it with the black pegs on one side instead of the grass, sort of gives a distorted angle compared to stairs. The meditation pose doesn't seem to fit well.

Nice crisp night shot. The meditator is a bit lost and the right side of the photo doesn't add anything to the composition.

There's a lot to really like in this photo - great focus, shadows, lines that lead back up to the subject. The subject himself, however, looks a little awkward. My first thought was he had spilled something on his lap.

Interesting, though he looks dressed like a ball player.

Feels a little tilted to the right. The composition also seems a bit setup (yes I know its setup but that doesnt necessarily mean it has to feel that way). Just doesnt grab my attention.
