I oringally started shooting in this particular alley to get shots for the phobia "Megalophobia - Fear of Cities" upon reviewing all the shots from the shoot I found this one, of a lone homeless man walking down the alley, and found it to be very ... hmm .... disturbing. It seemed to send shivers down my spin. Realized that I couldn't pass this one off as a fear of the city but rather it seemed to instigate my fear of the homeless ...

Fear of the homeless, or fear for the homeless? Must say that this picture invokes the latter in me. Nice lighting, just a shame the street lams are so harsh.
This is a really great shot. I love the lighting and the road fading into the distance. I think your title is off. Fear of dark and lonely places might be better, in my opinion. I was tempted to give it a low score based on that, but as I sit here typing, I find the picture haunting... I can't take my eyes off of it. 8
This could have been a very good photo, except for a few minor flaws like the CA on the street lamps and also the soft focus. Also, I would have preferred if this is converted into black and white. Still a very nice composition. 8
