you have made a bit of magic, blowing out the wall but not too much, sunshine and shadow; walkers and pigeons proceed unmolested by architecture.

Impressively distracting and chaotic shadow. Completely ignored, by you and the walkers. Why miss a beautiful day?

Oh what a beautiful day,
I've got a wonderful feeling,
Everything's going my way.

it's like you took the world apart and arranged it upside-down

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: Good overall exposure handling here in what looks like tricky light to me. The people are perfectly rendered, yet we still easily discern the door and the tree shadow. The juxtaposition of the people and the pigeons - both going about their business, works really well.

Critical stuff: Although you've pitched the exposure perfectly, I'd have made some local adjustments in post - I'd have brought the highlights of the wall back and darkened the shadow of the tree for a bit of additional drama. (Though I'm presuming you shot in RAW - you may not have had the dynamic range to do that if you shot in JPEG).

Overall: A fine and engaging shot.
