The guy in the background seems to be texting and the old man appears to be reaching for something inside his jacket. Endless scenarios here, and a great title to boot. Very well executed! |

there's some strong emotional elements to this shot that i can see and they really help make a case for it.
The expression of the old man is really the anchor for me, the crack right behind him on the pillar adds to the impact. The man in the back seems to be holding what looks like a cellphone? Regardless the idea of disconnect between the two humans comes across really well.
critique: There are also small bits that can be considered distracting (the cut off head) if that's the approach you were going for, maybe experiment with removing more of his scalp from the image to get rid of some of the distractions from the top edge of the frame?
The man in the back switches between complementary and distracting roles. i'd like to see him just a tad bit more in focus to see if that changes- but i guess that's not a possibility at this point. This might just be because the man in focus+ the crack almost make the image by themselves, the one in the back - for me - needs something - not sure what - to make him part of the image.
