Very strong image (and good title). Like it a lot.

Just out of curiosity, was it taken through this circle?

Thank you very much!

I went up to the UEA to take pictures of the fireworks but ended up having more luck taking photos around campus than watching the Guy Fawkes celebrations!

Oh yes, it is much better when viewed large. My initial impression was a good one but when seen in more the detail I saw firstly struck by the details in the bricks and secondly in the whole scene. Fantastic shot!

I really like this shot. I really like the circle, the lighting, and the guy's expression. What is he seeing in there? It makes you wonder. I like the fact that you provided a very high res image, but that can be a mixed blessing. You can clearly see the sharp focus on the bricks, but the man's face should really be the focal point for the image. I also wish the background wasn't quite so distracting. The windows and the bright doorway don't add anything to the image. Still, it was a worthy effort - nice job!

Great shot. Love the framing, the choice to use B/W, the lighting effect and its shadow, expression on the persons face and the pose

The only crib I have when seeing the larger version is that the focus on the man is bit soft while the focus onthe brick is real sharp. May be could have done something about that

Nice work...definitely better in the large size! I like the concept and I like many of the tones and shades. I wish the face was a bit lighter (not too bright, but like the shading on the hat) and sharper.

The detail on the brick is fantastic. The lighting is great, and the shot is well composed. I love the choice of the dark black as a sort of natural frame. Nicely done. I rate no higher than eight because I find the subject uninteresting, and I find the background a bit too noisy. I understand there probably isn't much to be done about the background. Maybe additional depth of field would help there.

very cool shot and very cool title... i like how nothing else in the image can be seen except the man and the oval... i also think the framing is excellent along with the shadow... very cool

Very unique photograph. I like the choice of black and white. The contrast is well done. The overall sharpness of the image is good. Very strong composition. The only improvements I would like to see would be a little more soft light on the "culprit's" face and some bluring in the backround.

Light touch with the contrast adjustment leaves a moonlit feel.
Ace composition, crisp and clear. I like the big dof, adds urban context.

excellently crisp detail and framing making you focus only on the man and curved wall.
emotionally, just enough menace in the shadowed face :)
