I don't usually dig sepia, but I love it with your shot.....this needs to be printed and added to your portfolio and/or framed and hung in your home. This is a really good "classic" shot. Well done, I am envious.

I love the version in Sepia, gives it a really good feeling. Great Picture!

Amazing! Very nice shot. You should be proud.
All 'versions' of it look great, but I like the first one the most. The brown tone on the leather jacket makes it look a little bit more alive.

Cheers!

Fantastic shot! He almost looks like he's been painted onto a concrete wall behind him. I love all the detail. Very nice.

It's a great capture, you should be very proud of it. You obviously have a great eye for shot!

Personally, I'm partial to the strict black and white after playing with the curves, adding more sharpening to it, and adjusting the brightness and contrast.

My preference is the sepia toned version. It really matches the mood of the composition.

i'm partial to B&W too, but I like the b&w with the touch of blue. Most likely because the B&W you have up feels a bit flat. I like your portrait, very well done. If I had anything to say I would say get rid of the first process you did and stick with the ones I just mentioned. Also, it is a shame you had to capture him in front of that wall. The wall makes the background extremely bland. I might have tried a dead on picture from the front and a complete side profile before I left him alone. But nonetheless, it is a great capture.

Well done peach, love all 3 shots but especially black and white it states a stronger image and story. I too love street candid photography and would love to do more of it in the near future. Im travelling to Bali in October and Im planning to do a shoot over there of candid people shots with their permission of course, I cant wait. Im new here and im from Oz but Im enjoying all the of the forum. I have posted a few pics that i have taken for comments so hopefully ill get sdome feedback to. Cheers
