Mike,
This is a pleasant image, but I think you would improve it by cropping off the upper third, just above the hanging planter. That extra space adds nothing to the composition.

Thanks for your comments, Robert.

I did crop the image, but I feel that it loses something. What drew me initially was the scale of the walls in relation to the waiting man. Whilst he is the initial focus, I found my eyes being drawn away to the height of the adjacent walls, then to the houses in the background. I liked the way those walls dwarfed the waiting man. I feel that the waiting man is not enough to make the image interesting for me.

Mike.

Mike,
Fair enough.
The person most important for you to please is you.
