i really like the lines and the colouring in this, and the silhouette of the guy fits the title so good

I love how you framed the photo, the posts etc surrounding that man really do make an effective frame. The shapes both from the silloette and the lines really are interesting to look at and I love the lighting and reflections. Excellent work mate, amazing.

Funny, the reflection of his head is cut off by the tile. He lost part of himself!
nice framing and balance and colour.
Its almost a perfect rule of thirds!

The lines... the reflection... the use of light... the tones... the silhouette... another perfect shot from Gilad! Congratz, it looks lovely! My brother was supposed to go to Haifa for his work, but the security checks and stuff like that made that his company cancelled the trip...
take care

nice capture. i really like the subject's silhouette and pose alot. the green tone fits perfectly. the squares are used really effectively. and i like the most how the imagery seemlessly meshes with the border. rad shot.

In combination with Spectator, this photo is even better. They both need to be together, as they're similar and very different at the same time. Wonderful work!

First of all, the picture is beautiful. the colors, sophisticated natural lights and framing is wonderful.
I had a minor problem with the gesture of the subject primarily as to what the gesture is in context with the title of the picture "introspection." I would have expected the person to have gesture that's more introspective such as staring calmly into a bottle or daydreaming out at the view of the window or some kind of calm expression that would make me think of introspection.
The image appears to be a person concentrating carefully on something or quantifying something in a more alert and attentive kind of thought as if he's looking at the transactions of his bank statement. The person looks like an accountant and doesn't seem introspective. I would have titled this picture "concentration" or "quantifying" or something that matches the person's gesture.
Still a wonderful shot as a whole.

Good critique.
I feel you have a point, but still "introspection" can stand for every kind of self inspection. Not only reflecting on life. I feel ut represents the photo in a cirtain way, and you suggestion in another (and also a good one).
Thank you so much for the great comment!

I love it! the framing by the window siluetes is awesome, there no deformation on the stragiht lines at all, I like that. This image could not be as great without that person, great capture.

Hey, thank you soo much for citing me, I notice that only now, sorry...
And again you strike us with those perfectly geometric lines balanced by the silhouette of that man, who seems like reading a sacred text (whichever 
Even though I prefer the other one (maybe because it has less lines, dunno...less confusing 
(and I'm really wondering why you don't start selling your photos, I think you'd have a lot of buyers
