A very interesting scene with all these Monks running around, muted colors work fine for me.
Taking a second look today to see about that Monk in half and tend to agree that he takes something away from the image, it could either be better without him, or, perhaps even a totally different crop where there would be a 'halved' person on each of the four sides of the crop moving in or out of the scene, to create some equilibirum in the pattern of monks in movement.
Kind Regards, Sander
