Very neat. I think I would like it even more if the walking fellow was just between bench 2 and 3. It looks like a fake stage somehow. Prob because of the objects behind the fence.

it is very nice, i like how the fence goes straight across in a perfect line. I would say almost the same thing as GB 1, (unless meant 123 from right to left, then it is the same) but if the man was in between the left bench and middle bench, his head would not blend in with the backround and it would stand out more, since there is no building behind the fence.
Tuna, it looks very neat as GB said so well. Actually, it looks quite staged although I know that it isn't which make the scene pretty strange (in a good way). I really like how you constantly manage to capture these odd life scenes.
Tuna, I can't stop looking at this image (that's a good thing)!! I can't figure out what's going on with the two people behind the left bench. To me, it looks like the woman is sitting on something with her feet up, and the man appears to be sitting next to her with his hands on something. It almost looks like he's pushing a lanw mower or holding onto a hadle of some sort. The part that confuses me is that there doesn't appear to be much room between the benches and the fence. What room is there is filled with plants...

I am also really confused!!! The presence of the couple to the left of the image just doesn't make any sense to me, they are much smaller than the main fiigure in the shot and there doesn't appear to be enough space for them to be where they are anyway!! The fact that they appear to be sitting behind a structure that is designed for sitting just makes things really strange, can you possibly explain???!!
Overall, I like the different layers of content in the image, am not too keen on the lamp post on the right hand side of the shot but that is minor,
The fence defines the shot for me to an extent and I am as intriqued as to whats on the other side of it as I am about the pair behind the left bench (I'ts not a painting on the fence is it?). The walking man is showing no interest anyway.
Peculiar to say the least Tuna.
I have a total lack of respect for anything connected with society, except that which makes the roads safer, the beer stronger, the food cheaper, and the old men and old women warmer in the winter and happier in the summer. Brendan Behan
The couple behind the bench is one of many elements in this image that, when examining it after the capture, I found to be interesting. However those folks back there may be perceived, they are real and this image is presented as captured. Shot with a 50mm lens, the scale is pretty close to what we would see on-site - so, plenty of space back there for them (despite the illusory effect of it appearing not to be so).
