Taken right outside Carnegie Mellon University's University Center. I've been meaning to shoot this location for weeks now, and this challenge gave me the motivation to get out in the freezing cold to do it =)

I was on the fence about going with B&W...thoughts?

For some reason I feel like you should have cropped the right side.

Good composition meets the challenge

Shame the verticals are out, well balanced.

Like the composition. Guy seems a little out of focus

I am not sure whether there is an unambigious definition of leading lines, but in my book, they should be a line or several lines that lead the viewer's eye towards the main subject of the picture. I think that's not the case in this picture. Your pic uses a vanishing point rather than leading lines.

Would have preferred that the person was further in the background. He is too far forward and stops me from looking into the image. Good effort however.
