Excellent image. This transcends the man and the background and speaks to oh, so much more. I was trying to figure out what contributes to the effect, and came up with: the man's expression - appears to be a combination of concern and endurance - care lines, expression, etc; no hands - conveys a sense of being rather than doing, weeds convey a sense of obstacles overcome and being dead, the temporary nature of the obstacles; the buildings seem to indicate past accomplishments; the sky is representative of our world - some clouds, but also some sunshine; the band of light through the lower part of the image helps to keep the eye in the image; the frame of the thistle also communicates obstacles while simultaneously assisting with eye control. I'm sure there's much more as well.
To me, this is not just a picture. It is art.

| One of the few, if not the only one, where the double exposure has a purpose, it tells a story. Great. Also a good balance of dark and light area's. My top pick in this challenge. |
