An old man in an old street... Nice!

This is very nice, but I think the face needs to stand out more since it's the focus. (The bright white walls in the background are like all I can see.) A color version would be interesting.

This image is so simple. You didn't add anything distracting and thats why the overall look and feel of this is spot on! Well done!

avatar gamemastertips

Very simple but effective. You found the perfect man to add in! He totally belongs--looks realistic enough to be a photograph.
