heys ZJ, some comments
- Could have moved a little to the right so that the lamp post with the 15A is blocking the one behind (its distracting.)
- Picture a little underexposed. - can try increase aperture number and experiment as you increase.
Hope this helps XD ..

Hi
- Its interesting that u are able to have a subject of 15A a main focus ( good point 1 )
- But your timing need to be accurate see the person on the left side of the photo. (Bad point 1) Distracting ( learn to take note of ur photo when you are looking through you viewfinder)
- Aperture F3.5 good dept of field (but need learn to control it well to give ur photo a good focus
-Your setting of 1/1600 is too fast for this type of photo.. Reason too fast = to Underexpose
- Lastly you ISO 100 not a good idea ( ISO low mean good quality but also mean underexpose ) So take note of ur ISO and shutter speed at times. Try out more then 1 shot at one location it wun kill you right. You will get to understand different setting give you different effect.
Some Ideas for your (Try out slow shutter 1/60 or 1/100 maybe if the person who is a the left side happen to rush pass the road you will capture the motion it add on story and meaning to your photo. doesn't it sound better? Keep up the good work

Just to let you all know, that i took this shot like a "tag and go" kinda thin Cause i was crossing the road to the bus stop back home  Thus, didn't really care about the person walking or the car. The settings was actually preset for another photo i took earlier on. Nevertheless, thanks for the honest comments. (thought i like the idea of underexposed as it gives the picture more feeling to it, personal thoughts and likings) |

if you want a little underexposure, can try adding a little contrast to the pic ...

mean by photoshop or other enhancing software?
I personally prefer my Photography to be raw even if there's dust specs in the picture!!! ;D
