A very nice location. You stand very nice in this photo, colors are matching, lighting is very nice. Good job :)

Nice pose, with your head tipped down just a bit. It gives me the feel of someone that's a little camera shy. I like the graffiti also.

Heh cowboy, this one has personality, like the subdued colours you have used.

Wow this is sharp as a tack, i can almost read the fine print on that poster! Nice composition too

The photo is good, but you are too soft in this picture, you kind of fade away in the surroundings.

Nah, you don't look like a derelict. I love the setting - great place for a portrait!

Very nice atmosphere in the setting.

The outfit and location don't seem to go together. Kind of a yuppie-cowboy-slumming sort of look to this ;-)

Fun composition. Love the building!

You look a bit well dressed for your surroundings, lol. More like a lost tourist than a derelict. (Unless, of course, there's a joke here I'm just not getting)

But as for the photography, your face and shirt seem to be the wrong color - as if desaturated or blued.I like the composition and the setting, lighting is good, but could use a bit more contrast.

Oh, I love the edgy look to this. A derilict might fit into this scene, but you definitely don't look like one :) Great job!

I wish I could see a smidge more of your eyes. Love the composition and locale.

You in a monochrome shirt get lost next to the colors and detail of the wall.
