A great image, well seen and well taken. There is definately a story here, and so many questions. Who is the man? Does he feed the pigeons every day? Thank you for sharing the image in the competition. Well done

A very atmospheric image, it reminds me of one of those old cigarette commercials of the 1950's or 60's. Great lighting too, it spotlights the figure really well. They say that every picture tells a story, this one certainly does.

A stunning image, it was so close to getting 1st place. I love the lighting and the composition. Baker Street underground station is now definately on my photography wish list. Well done indeed on a fabulous image. Sorry I could only award one 1st place

I absolutely love this image, it's so simple but so effective. The tones are perfect and the lighting is spot on. Even though the figure is of centre, the image is balanced by the coffee cup. Well done on 1st place.

What a fantastic image, perfectly exectued. The image tells a story but also asks questions. Who is he? Where is he going? I also love the angle of the image, it draws you into the subject. Well done on 3nd place.
