Does this image have a sense of voyeurism? Why or why not? How does this image make you feel as the viewer?

I believe this image has a strong sense of voyeurism. This is because there is only one intent of a peeping tom: to catch something that will excite them. This image makes me feel like i am always watched. Pictures like these tend to make me feel uneasy becuase of what can be revealed.

Yes it does have a sense of voyeurism, because it seems the man doesn't know he's being watched. It makes me wonder why the photographer is watching the man, and I wonder who the man is.
