I totally love this whole image.

Not sure at all about why Nat Geo would want it for their mag, but...



I may or may not be voting, so please do not equate my comment with any score.

Oh my, your lecturer(s) are going to have a field day with me...and the voters with you!
Urban art, fashion (the OOF passer-by) and street photography have all had a place in NG. So don't discount this image on the fact that it's not a Cheetah chasing a Gazelle in the Masai Mara...
It has an odd balance between the art and the human, compositionally speaking. B&W is not a traditional (read modern) tool in NG. Yes it's been used, especially in landscapes. What springs to my mind when visioning NG is colour, colour and more colour. You selected a low DOF/huge aperture, the art is the FP of your image. The title is certainly not what NG would use. What is it? Post modernism? Braille? Aah and there it is. A title for your image!
There's a bit too much PP in this for NG to accept it methinks. Dodge and burn and multishot bracketed HDR, pano and crop is all they allow.
It's great PP work, would fit in any one of a dozen DPC challenges but the only way NG would publish it is if it had relevance to the article it might appear in. So not all is lost...

A door with goosebumps. Great street shooting.
