rbashir,

Good B/W subject. A little close to right side. If balances were centered, the vertical indicator would be less deadcenter. Top 1/4 is distracting.

Blur, top left: someone's hand? Foliage? Subject is soft in larger view, loses shape in darkness. Here's where a foldable reflector would have given great results. Putting more light on right side might have given a little more sharpness as well.

mm... I like the shot (BW looks good), but it needs a bit of contrast (it may help to make it appear sharper). Did you shoot through a shop window?

Very nice picture! I like the relation between light and the dark here. I agree with Jiminy that it is too close to the right edge. B/W is the great choice.
