I like this a lot, only thing that bothers me about this shot is the glare coming off his glasses 9

I love how you captured the morning sun on his glasses, nice use of back-light.
I would have ditched his ditty bag or moved it to the side.
It's a big wad at the bottom center of your photo and chops off his feet.

taken from the midle of the street you could avoid the excess of upperside .light. Nice idea.

Great angle, and I like how the sun is behind, making the shadows draw you into the centered subject. This photo also captured my attention since at first it looked like he was dressed up in scuba diving gear.. must have been the sunglasses that looked like goggles. It was surreal for a while before I understood that this was a normal scene.

Love this shot! After the challenge, go find my pic and you will see why it really caught my attention. ;-)

I like the centered composition and the sunlight catching on his glasses; it gives him sort of a "haloed" effect. Good luck!

I like this shot, but I think I would have liked it even more if i could see the buildings on the side of the street that this fellow is playing on. As it stands, it looks like he is playing for the road, and not the passersby. 6

this is great...some may say the over exposure with the sun takes away, but i think it works...good job..great eye

Beautiful photograph. I would have liked to see more of the saxophone player, though.
