Another thing besides his posture that caught my eye was that he wasn't looking at anything- not out at the ocean to his right or to the park area to his left. I removed the color because I thought the green grass was too distracting. I also debated cropping out the trash can, but decided to leave it as metaphor. JeffryZ

Very nicely composed. The picture expresses loneliness very well.

Hi Jeffry,

you have been able to capture a good sense of loneliness here. I think it's the posture of the man and the tones of the image. Nice composition

Very smoth tones. The tones and the compsostion do very well in projecting a feeling of lonelyness.

Yes, the compo is good and the guy does look abandoned. Good take on the theme.

I like the composition. The corner 'action', the position at the extremity of the bench, the guy postureand of course using B&W ; They all reinforce the impression of solitude. Even the garbage can does not want him.
