Have your wicked way with me. All I say is that it is a documentary image, intended to provoke thought, perhaps prick a conscience. I would like thoughts along these lines as well as the more technical and artistic aspects.
I hope the above comes within the definition of critique used here. If it doesn't, Nightski, could you set up a "Documentary" section please ;-)

Graham, this is the kind of gutsy, down to earth photos you take, and I do enjoy them. I think you need to crop quite a bit though. If you just have the stairs and 2/3 of the church doors, people will get where he is. I know you probably wanted that sign, to show the viewer where he is, but it is a distraction away from the subject, and not needed. IMHO As far as the b&w..I cannot comment. I am not a good judge of how to do b&w.
