I love how everything the man is wearing really stands out from a uniform background. Excellent idea for the shot. Did you photoshop away the shotgun he was holding?

Why is the dog chained up while the blind man is walking into the road? This photo asks so many questions.

Good point.
I think he's trying to open the trunk.

 I was thinking something similar, he looks like a retired gangster. He is very smart though, his generation knew how to dress properly.
Great shot.

Thanks guys!
He must know the place very well so he felt confident in leaving the dog chained. That Street is next to the City Hall and
is closed to normal car traffic. What you see parked is an electric car that belongs to the city Hall.
You can see the worry in the dog's pose. That's what makes the photo for me Cheers!
P.S. So right about the older generation dressing properly. You notice this especially now that the temperatures are warming up and storms of tourist appear wearing only briefs
