This is Kari Ann, greetings from the Critique Club:
composition: the leading lines of the bridge, the pathway, and all the vertical lines really draw your eye to the stranger in the composition, with that being said, i love the addition of the man, he is an essential part of the picture, and adds interest
color: sepia tone is managed perfectly. no overdoing it here.
contrast: the deep contrast really works well, offsetting the subject and adding emphasis to the leading lines
focus: the background being a tad blurry dosent bother me, but for some it may. i feel it helps focus the eye more on the man.
depth of field:again, this is a personal taste, but i like the shallower depth of field, some may find it distracting though.
lighting: beautiful lighting, well done.
other: i love this photo, its so solemn yet portrays the message of hope. i agree with other commenters though, the white on the top of the photo could have been cropped out to help emphasize the lines to the man. but its nothing major, just a small improvement to an already great photo. congrats on your new personal best as well, this is definitely worthy of it. If you have any other questions, feel free to PM me anytime.

| I'd have probably done the same thing but I think the sky above the bridge is making the photo have less of an impact. Check it out, scroll the photo to block it and see what you think. Anyway, I do like the tunnel effect the photo has and I like the Black and White. |

| I think I would have cropped the white sky off the top to make sure the eye stays with the man. |

| Wish it was clearer at the end of the walk. The front bride is pretty sharp, bht the rest of the shot is a bit blurred. Not perspective. |
