Contrast is a little low in this. otherwise, an interesting way of portraying the job, and I like the title.

i like the low key idea to show the darkness of the underworld, but the image is a bit lacking in contrast that could really help the theme

What's the occupation here -- crooked mechanic, thief, or fence? Black and white's a good idea but I would have like more contrast.

good concept and lighting, but the hand holding open the jacket looks a bit menacing. If the hand were turned more to show the fingers, it might be more effective. 7

A bit too dark. It took a while to realize the motor was in the subjects jacket.
