In Chandni Chowk, Delhi, India.

I went in but didn't buy anything, plenty of nice stuff though. When I walked in with my D810 neck the salesmen surrounded me like a pack of ravening hyena's

Nice shot, and I can see that reaction.

It's the same as you walk along the street with people trying to entice you into their stores, trying to sell you trinkets. The most persistent are the rickshaw wallahs, they didn't understand that we wanted to walk.

I spent some time looking at this image yesterday. I did experiment with moving the intersection point of the golden segment from the back of the riders head down to his cheek. I know there is nothing arbitrary about your compositions. I would be interested in seeing this image as it came out of the camera.

Here it is. It has only been resized for posting on here. It should be large enough to try different crops.

A good illustration of why Marshall McLuhan said b&w was hot and color cold.

It is interesting to see the original SOOC shot. I can totally understand why you chose B&W.

B&W, to me, brings together all of the elements in the picture. In the colour version, the eye is drawn to the stronger colour tones rather than taking in the whole scene.
