I think the way the figure has become blurred in the second image due to using a longer exposure time due to shooting at night has really worked to my advantage on this photograph. It created movement and a sense of a rush of the person passing an open doorway that almost invites to go inside on the first image when no one is in the fame. Without stopping or going inside.
Two images which very much complement each other. Would work really nice as a triptych but I think I would like the see it horizontal. I think your use of a long exposure in creating these images (yes, I know it was necessary, but still) was a strong choice as its intriguing to see a person, but we don't really care who he is we just want to see how he interacts with the place. but blurring him you take away his identity and we are able to see the image as an image of place.
