I received a reply over on Fred Miranda's site after posting this image in
the B&W forum for critique. I was told the viewer couldn't determine the
subject, that he thought the image needed more contrast.
If you have interest in that discussion (my reply is short) you may read it

Meanwhile, I've posted this image to the same thread. With the shadows
opened up and the use of tint this picture assumes a different character. I
occasionally fool around with B&W tints as the effect can be pleasing if
not overdone. I don't know if it works in this instance or not, but it
certainly changes the mood.
