Yes, I tried a more realistic/less contrasty version but I decided I liked this better. It’s a strange set up anyway: a few weeks ago there was a quite a storm in Bondi and one of the casualties was a brick wall above a shop which is behind all this now. The shops thus hidden while repairs are being carried out are having sales.
I really like the contrast between the low-key /brightly lit foreground and background, too… S.E… and the way you’ve framed those nearly symmetrical distant lights (?) in a way that pull my eye in towards the center even more…
The context is almost abstracted here. Interesting composition.

I love it!
Thank you!
i think we should should give something to the skeleton. at his condition he needs more than food, a new skin or flesh.perhaps. Cheers Nonoy Manga
I wonder what she/he is praying for.
Please buy something…
Ha ha! Aha! So the skeleton is a shop keeper! Ha ha ha!
he used to be, no food to eat he died…cruel world.
A Turkish man told me yesterday that life is like tea drunk with a piece of sugar held in the cheek. Bitter with moments of sweetness.
fella is gonna need more than 50%!
Maybe not, I believe the needs of a skeleton are very slim.

They are lights, Robert, in the shop behind the sign which is hanging from some scaffolding which is covered first with some thick meshlike stuff.
I like the composition, it’s a bit odd.
That skeleton has taken a bit more than 50% off by looks of it!
Do you remember that fabulous Robbie Williams film clip where he shed his clothes, then this skin, then his viscera etc?
