Thanks for sharing.

I would say this is just perfect for b&w. Nic1!
I like the muted colours in yours.
@Jade_NL like your crop a lot. Thanks!
@Thomas_Do I like the feeling your edit gives. Thanks!
@hannoschwalm Thank you for your kind words!
With Filmulator:
This is one where I’d want to do a local adjustment, burn-in the face a bit. In rawproc, with no local tools:

Like the tonality of both of these, will have to look at how you achieved it.
Nice crop! I also like the crisp look too.
Pretty close to the crop I was considering submitting.
You eliminated the “noise” on the right side. Maybe step back out just a tad (more as observer than intruder)…

First, I changed the color calibration again on the above image:

Then I switched to GIMP and used the above BW method:
I also like muted colours and crop. It would be nice in B&W but the challenge would be keeping his head distinct from the background. Also the crutch tends to disappear in B&W.
But hey, if was easy everyone would do it
