he looks like he's trying to hide the fact that he's crying. The syplicity makes it great and the lack of colour just adds to the feeling of misery.

It's great

The black and white is beautifully evocative. Wonderful piece. Is it despair that makes him turn his face, or would he rather disassociate himself? Looks like we'll never no.

Beautifully-done. I love the simplicity of the artwork with the deep emotion and sense of loss it represents.

You did an excellent, excellent job with the stark values and line art in this. We all know too well what that beast of a hurricane has done to New Orleans and the Gulf states, and really, this picture sums up the pain and loss that everyone down there is experiencing right now. You making him hide his face like that makes the picture seem even more poignant, because it's telling the viewer that he is so pained and sad that he doesn't even want his face shown. The innundated street lamp also represents those cities quite well; not much of them is left sadly.
