Hi Tuna,
Really great! This reminds me of August Sander's. The guy on the right transforms the shot to another level.

What Yoyo said!

Honnestly, I wouldn't be that interested by the scene at the first place but the guy in silhouette at the right literally take this photograph to the next level. It really speaks.

Love the mood, the light and the silouhette!

However, it does feel somewhat like a "rushed" photo...i'm guessing this could have been caused in order to be able to capture the man before he left the frame.

some post-editing might help...like cropping to re-frame the image and give it the feel of planned image rather than a pass by shoot! (from left, a wee bit from top and from bottom)

Not sure of the original intent, but i think the cropping would help!

Otherwise the mood is just great, I love darkness in a photo and this just puts you in the location!

Hello Tuna
I don't feel the man is an asset here at all; it just looks as if he got in the way. For it to work I feel the man should be playing a bigger and more important role here with a little less silhouette. Your title and idea is excellent though but I feel it does not come off as it could.
