I think this picture has a lot of emotion. I really like it.

I agree.. lots of emotions, nice focus. The only thing I am not sure of is the crop. It is a little tight, however I also think it works for "this" photo.

Hello
Nice capture! As others have said, lots of emotion! I feel that the crop could be a bit tighter, say a 3x4 crop so as the remove some of the empty space on the right. An increase in exposure would allow more contrast to be added, and the blacks dragged down so they're actually black - this may make the image stand out more.

I can post what I mean if you're ok with me doing a quick edit on your work?

Here's what I thought:
It's always a personal preference though.

Its does look better without the dead space to the right ..thanks for taking the time to review the photo.

I also started to mess with the photo and tried to bring in the light shadows to give the photo a more moody feel...maybe to dark now?

Also tried a close crop without the metal door frame.
