Re: Man in doorwayI like it as it is. It tells a story. I can even see the foot tapping. Any moment now he's going to look at his watch. The obscuring reflections on the large window hint at who he is waiting for and why without giving the game away. At the same time, they put the scene into context.

It's easy to be good... when there is nothing else to do
Re: Man in doorwayA couple of suggestions to make the photograph tell more of a story
1. Paint a red dot on his back 2. Have a team of Spec. Forces on the reflection about to crash in 3. Or maybe a ninja??
Re: Man in doorwayThat's not more of a story. Just a different one

Re: Man in doorwayI like it. In a lot of ways the refection becomes a possibility to what the man might be thinking about. I like the composition as a whole.
Re: Man in doorwayMatt I really like this one. Here's why
- nice tonal range - muted, but not dull - I like all the squares and the depth they give (window frame + painting) - I think the intersection of the window frame and painting give extra depth as do the reflections on the glass - Regardless of where my eye lands on the image, the blank left or the strong lines of the right eventually draw me to the man - I like his stance - it really makes me wonder what he's waiting for or to whom he is talking Hell I could write an art school essay on this image and analyse it to death when the reality may be that it's a quick snap you just liked That of course makes it even MORE interesting.
