Real life! Very good contrast between materiaalas and the lighting is good too...I think the look is inviting despite subject matter amd makes me want to explore-although with some trepidation/hesitancy.

Interesting contrast in materials and lighting. Very nicely done. Darn, Dante11 said the same thing. Oh well, I never read other opinions until I have written mine.

There is a gradual progression from shadow to light across the photo that is unusual and appealing. It’s as if left is sinister and right is safe. The image is intriguing to say the least and one to be proud of.

Oooh, I just adore urban shots! Terrific!

You caught the perfect lighting here. Any other time of day would have reduced the effect. The scene is a bit grim but bright and glowing at the same time. Technically perfect. Wonderful photo!!

Most shutter bugs would have shot the whole city block and called it good. It takes a good and patient eye to see the tasteful image hidden within the mediocre shot. I'm glad you took the time to look for it and get in closer. This shot is loaded with character.
