great title. is the light arriving or the darkness arriving? or is the man arriving. No, he's departing. But departing into darkness or light? It is your offcenter composition with counteracting diagonals that creates all of this wonderful ambiguity. 10

Interesting light pattern and even more interesting how you chose to shoot at the moment the person was in the shadow part.

Cool composition and lighting! I wonder how this would look in black and white?

The more I look at it, the more I like it. The silhouette makes for a great Everyman look. The light lines all point straight at him. He stands out even more by cutting off the verticals of the entryways. And then the "Arrivals" sign is a great touch.

Very nice. Good eye to capture this one. My only nit is that the title conflicts with the image.....just "arrivals" would have been better.

the shadow lines make me think of a jail cell which is i suppose how arrival and departure lounges can feel

Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning.

Great chiaroscuro. 7
