Nice.

Love the subtle texture and patterning on the jacket ... very nice exposure and composition.
Looks like a book cover.

Everything is "right" in this image: composition, exposure, light...
Bravo and thanks for sharing!

Gee, Russ, does this mean you have multiple personalities? ;)

Absolutely, Pop. One for street, one for architecture, one for landscape, one for portraiture, one for...

Thanks for comments :)

Okay, all you non-hands-of-man people, suppose the walking figure hadn't been in this picture. Would it still have been good? I'm dying to hear your attempts to evade that question.

Russ, I would have preferred it without the person. IMO the path through the trees is the hero - not the man. The 'man' changes the design and the feeling I get from the shot. Its a great shot with or without him though and that says a lot in and of itself.
Well evaded? ;D

The person and plaid shirt ruins what could have been a moving and surreal shot.
Get the cane please ...

Im only guessing as given that my first impression was that the figure was perfect

Perfect mood, I like it very much.

No, it wouldn't be nearly as good without the man... because, obviously, this is a street photograph, not a landscape.

I usually go to some lengths to avoid having people in my photographs but I think the man's presence makes this shot. It's excellent.

I prefer the inclusion of a figure but I would have preferred him smaller in the frame; so taken with the figure further up the path. My .02p worth!

Okay, here it is for Josh and John (to coin a phrase). Better, guys?

Much better. ;)

Now can someone please insert a misty silhouette of, say, a distant deer into that white hole Russ created? ;D
-
Slobodan, Better go back and look at the original. That hole already was there, but part of it was filled by the figure that's so essential to the composition. Without the figure it's all hole, just like any landscape without the hand of man.

The mood is excellent, I agree, but seeing the details of the man's shirt (plaid) ruins it for me.
If it was an entirely darkened silhouette of a man walking, it would have created a better mood IMO.
