Kenny,
We are all learning that's why we are here. I assumed you converted it from color to BW, we all do that now days.
Let me give you the site of a professional evaluator. He is a grreat guy. Does evaluations on images from the goodness of his heart. I've learned a buch from him. His evaluations are free and like I said he is a Pro, gets hired to judge images. His web site is :http://www.digapixblog.com/ Tell him I sent you. BTW my web site is www.auphotography.net. I don't really post a lot here, every once in a while like yesterday.
Al

Al,
Looks good buddy, like I mentioned on my previous post. I did want to recrop the bottom portion(pavement/sidewalk or what ever u called).
Look im no better than anyone here, Im just noobie,I just began with dSLR less than a year.
One last thing, the pics above I didnt shot in BnW, I use Lightroom to converted to BnW in RAW format. Thank you.

Kenny,
I guess I'm not afraid of debaiting. Julie is correct in one thing, rules can be broken but only when it adds impact to an image. But I have to disagree on the composition, putting the main subject in the center makes the picture static. The white sidewalk doesn't add one ounce of impact. A bright area will lead the eye away from the main subject. Actually I would crop it a a pano..see attached.

Here you are dear Kenny, welcome to UF. I will have to disagree with Al, the rule of 3rd can be broken and here I feel that it was completely appropriate to capture the mood of the crowd. Great job, excellent in B&W.

Kenny,
Welcome !! Nice image, idea is good, but I would have not put the crowd in the across the center of the image (Rule of Thirds). I would have incorporated the trees above their heads, because the pavement in front is of little interest.
