Spent half an hour waiting for an interesting subject against this background. Missed by seconds a toddler on a red tricycle that would have been perfect! These guys were the most interesting of the passers by who walked into frame.
Post processing - cropped slightly, bit of curves and fiddling with brightness, contrast and saturation.
Wanted to maximise the blank areas - if advanced editing, would have got rid of the slight shadows in top mid left of frame.
Quite pleased - but wish I had got my camera out faster for that kid on trike.

woman looking up is distracting, if the dog is the focus of the picture, also, it looks like you're trying to force contrast out of the picture that isn't there, so it looks over-processed. i think i would have really liked it if the woman wasn't even there, but maybe you couldn't control that
The texture in the bricks seems to wash out near the back of the image, and the focus gets a bit soft near the people as well. Nice use of negative space.
Very very nice, this is one of the better shots I have seen so far but just starting out the voting, I like it and gave it an 8, I especially like the distortion from no doubt a wide angle lens and the effect it has on the pattern in the gound. One other thing, sorry for saying this but IMHO but the title of the shot is as bad as this shot is good, couldn´t you think of anything better...? :o)
Very funny. The seemingly endless woodwork decking works well for this photo. The subjects are perfectly placed, and the colors of the clothing work perfectly. I'd prefer it if the photographer seemed a little more invisible - if the subjects' gazes all were parallel with the dog's. Nice shot.
