I apologize in advance if I'm taking the definition of "urban" too liberally here. This shot looks great in BMP format, but when I host it, it comes it looking like crap. I converted it to jpeg, which you see below, but I lose a lot of smoothness around the edges and some of the more subtle/dark tones in the face.

I know the lighting is weird.

Looks like he's ready to plunge into that lifestyle. Colors are kind of weird, but it may be what you intended.

The lighting was terrible and the raw image was extremely dark, so my only real option was to take whatever "artistic" angle I could with it. It works for me, but I can see where it might be a bit much for others. Taken in a garage with a table lamp on one side of the room and the neon sign in the picture on the other.
