I like your composition, using the cement as the leading lines into the image. Exposure seems right on. Your "subject" is obviously the man sleeping on one of the three benches. The other two people are not needed and detract from the emotion. You want yor viewer to sty tuned on the man on the bench.
Very powerful photo. I like it alot except IMHO the people walking in the background are somewhat distracting and do not add to the feel of the photo. Maybe a more head-on angle to the benches and some cropping may have helped increase the impact of the subject? Possibly even b&w for mood? Nice photo nonetheless... 7
Might have been better cropped more though to just see the three benches and maybe waited until the two folk in the bacground had passed? My attention was initially drawn top them, when it should have gone to the guy on the bench.
I'm not sure I connect the title: is this a reference to 'there but for fortune' a.k.a. 'there but for the grace of god go I'?
Otherwise nice shot - would have cropped the walking people out...but they do make another three, if that's what you intended.
I like this picture. Well-observed, good composition (though rather a lot of space in the foreground). However, I would probably have waited until those people on the path were out of the picture. Eliminating them would have increased the feeling of isolation.
