This is a photo from a series of photographs from a project titled "Urban solitude". This project intends to portray a hidden loneliness in a big city where people see each other without seeing and where a drama happens unnoticed every day behind the walls.
This particular photo was taken in Tokyo and the main intention is to convey a message of waiting for things that never come, for dreams that never materialize; it also tries to depict a beginning of a long journey of self discovery that is doomed to fail.
I am asking if I managed to convey the above emotions and if not, what viewers emotions are (if any). I am also interested in technical remarks such as a proper choice of exposure, cropping and tonality.
I personally like this picture very much but I am aware that my emotional attachment to it makes me blind to a real emotional value of the photo. This is why I am interested in other's opinion about it.
