The longer I look at it the better I like it. The soft-focus building in the background gives a nice dimension to the composition. Poor Abe sitting there helplessly. The whole shot in shades of blue and blue-gray except the bird is nice, and really focuses the attention on the irony.
Heh! The look on Abe's face, though no doubt he's had that look for some time, seems to indicate his displeasure with the situation. Very nice composition with the building in the background.
