Very thought-provoking. I'm trying to decide how I feel about the framing, but the subject is really compelling. The naturally unsaturated b/g is nice, too.
I like it, Lew, and I'm with lambert on it as well. Have you tried maybe cropping just the one panel and giving it a little level? It's good street photography and is self-explanatory (missing kid in a crime-ridden area). Good work!
(I know its not rectilinear but the actual structure seems to have settled and twisted and I had to transform a bit to get even the verticals sort of parallel parallel.)
