This whole pic looks a bit fuzzy. I'm not exactly sure what this pic would be representing if put in the paper. I would've concentrating on the demolition work being done on the site and left this guy right out of the pic. I guess I'm not seeing his significance in this picture and if he is significant, then focus on him as the prominent subject - Just my thoughts - Inspzil

not quite in focus enough, though the composition's sweet, like the different ways the different parts of the picture are lit.

Very cute. The shot not the guy.

In the building trade "cowboy" carrys a negative conotation, eg, not legit. Are you saying something about this dude?

This shot seems to have a story to tell. I find it almost ironic that he would wear a hard hat, and work boots and leave his legs exposed. ouch. The orange vest does well at pulling attention to him. that said, I think it might work better if it were possible to crop it so that the man was up and to the right a little, placing him more in the picture and not so close to the edge. Overall, the focus is a little fuzzy, which also makes it difficult to see well. karmat

Image crop is off. Too much building and not enough of the "urban cowboy"...in my humble opinion....

I wish I could see a little more of the man. The background isn̢۪t the most interesting and there is very little in the cowboy.

I don't get the title ....unless this is in Dallas, Texas........New stadium? However, I like the shot but not the perspective. 3/4 is uninteresting building,--- and 1/4 is 'the cowboy'. I'm not slamming your work at all.....just that the shot is not clear as to what it's saying. I hope I'm making sense to you. Justine

The color and negative space are super. The sunlight in the upper left is a bit distracting. Good shot!. DPz
