Very good indeed. I would crop a little on the top. I know it`s not room for much cropping in order for the arch to reach the left side of the frame, but I think I would crop out all of the text (the bottom of sign will probably have to remain in the frame). Text in images very strongly demands attention and even I, who can`t read Russian, is drawn away from the main subject to the text in the upper right corner. Without the text, I feel much more at peace with the picture and the composition.

The picture appear slightly unsharp, but it`s not distracting.

Marius, the sign reads "Dostoyevsky Street", and the woman and the setting of course remind us of his novels in more than one way

Very clean picture and the subject is as difficult to watch as to read Dostoievski

Has a profoundness to it also.

Пикториализм какой-то просто

Interesting photo. Almost a movie still. Good use of light. Could use a little cropping (from the top).
