Great photo

but.

its ALMOST a little too busy for me. maybe that was the style you were trying to convey? the busyness of the window compared to the stillness of the man? i don't know. i'm not you. but if it were me i would at least get rid of some of the reflections in the glass

once again great photo!

I think its a great photograph, really works well in black and white.

Nicely done. B&W works great.
Maybe crop the door out to bring the eye toward the old man.

Thanks Daniel,
Yeah, it is a little busy, but one of those quick photos of opportu.nity, grab the camera and shoot.
I can play with the reflections, good idea.

Thanks for taking the time to write and I'm glad you like it. Yeah, someone else mentioned it's "busy" and it is, that's a good suggestion

I love how busy this picture is! I don't think it'd have the same "feel" if it wasn't so busy. I wouldn't change a thing! Jamie

Wow, $12.50 for a haircut, it's at least $15 here on the midwest. Nice shot, but I do wish that we could see the man a little more clearly.

Congratulations, Daniel!
I like this photo very much and I think that this brown b&w realy works here, but.. for me if you'll cut 1/3 from the left (Including this vertical line) this photo will be far more attractive (and rule of thirds will work)
