If it's part of a series it could be documentary, sure. The  
'manipulation' part of it would be determined then by the context it  
is placed in.
For what I see now, this is another one of your very strong pictures,  
where light and contrast perfectly sustain the subject itself.
Thanks for showing,
Philippe
