    I love this image...

    Have you considered a bit closer crop I tried it cropping out the bright foreground, under the plants and a bit from the top and both sides. This places the poster right at the confluence of the top third and left third (rule of thirds) lines and the poster and the robed pedestrian are the centers of interest!

    Thanks Richard

    I think this has some promise. I'm not usually a 16:9 crop kinda guy, but I'll have a play at 6:4 or 7:5 a bit closer in.

    Very good Phil, very clever capture.

    Initially I thought the guy in the poster was Mitchell Johnson - but no, he's been busy at the Gabba pummeling the Pommie cricketers

    Ah. Love the supreme irony of this capture, because what it portrays, is in my estimation, is the actually the truth of the matter.

    I would almost be tempted to add just a touch more contrast, but then, you may loose some of the detail?

    Well seen.

    There is so much to like about this image.

    I might crop to eliminate the bright foreground, though that is informational and provides depth. Perhaps darken it a little bit. If you do crop the bottom, I can see cropping a little on the left. But I wouldn't crop anything off the right side because that area of the image makes me wonder if the man is going to turn into that part of the street or continue walking forward.
