Nice one. Think I would have shot a bit lower including more of the steps putting him in the upper third. Poor sod

This is the typical poverty type photograph and it works, basically because you used B&W and introduced noise, or shot at high ISO. Anyway, the graininess gives the shot its gritty, harsh feel. Well Done. 10
