    I'd crop a large chunk of the left out.

    Very nice image. Love the light and composition. The image seems to have a loneliness to it if that makes any sense. The man seems lonely on a lonely street. Great capture.

    I wish you had pulled the trigger just a moment sooner when he was in the middle of the brightly lit street.

    Still, this is very nice. I am usually a big "let's crop it" kind of guy but this seems fine to me.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Great composition......it could be cropped but don't think its necessary as the dark left pulls ones eyes immediatly to the light and shows the natural contrast..

    Nice composition with great lines throughout. I don't agree with the crop, but I would be inclined to lighten up the left side somewhat. As is it's a large dark area, but there's that great door hiding there in the shadows. I also like how you captured the backlighting on the man walking through there. Well done as usual.

    I wouldn't crop it and I agree with MB1 that it would have been awesome to catch the guy in the light.
