I see what you mean... Great composition pulling my eyes left from collar adjusters, to podium stander, to red coat, to peering couple. Love the colors, clouds, and the way they cast shadow over collar adjusters to podium. May only quibble is there may be a bit over blue saturation in top of sky, or it may be my monitor. How long / many shots to capture this scene I've seen? I hope this ribbons.

I like this - at last, I was despairing. Of course the near silhouette of that left-fore couple, and their pose absolutely make it - but as much, I think, because of the construction of the composition - all lines lead to the centre standing bloke, and his curious upward gaze. The only thing I would say, and absolutely say, is that this must be a black and white shot. It just cries out for it - it would move the entire subject out of the boviously humdrum, and make a grest deal more of the strange shapes and relationships here. Marvellous work, otherwise.
