Assimilating The Chaos

[fotugraphy]

Hi, going forward on my photography venture I stopped and clicked another shot. Can you please review it and let me know what exactly is missing for it to make it much better?

He was watching something very carefully, I kept my camera on the floor (at some height there was one more floor) and hoping he doesnt move a bit and got the shot.

With the post processing i have add contrast and also added Noise to the image. I have posted both the versions with noise and without noise. I'm more inclined towards noise version.

Please share your views about the shot and the processing for it. I'm not too sure if it is a keeper or not as i havnt done much of street photography till yet.

Thank You

PS : Please click on the image for lightbox screen view (Highly recommended).

Nicely done.

This is a very nicely done image. I think your choice of B&W works very well in this scene, especially with the blurred people moving around in the background; it masks the movement more effectively than colour likely would have.

I personally prefer the version without the noise, because even in the expanded Lightbox view, it doesn't add anything to the composition.

Thanks a lot for your valuable review and suggestion. I will keep the noise free version of it.
