thats awesome i voted 1st place for this shot and it got 2nd, i was close :) the first place ribbon was my 2nd place which i think is also neat.

Nice photo, but I think a shallower DOF would be nice to minimize the distractions in the background. The man in back really tends to pull my eye away from the subject.

Congrats Bob....excellent emotive shot. Enjoy the ribbon!

A wonderful candid picture... congratulations. As a Pediatrician, this is my favorite image from the competition.

Sure, it looks like a protective Grandpa keeping the kids from stepping into the street, but what you don't see is the hot dog vendor just outside the frame and they are waiting in line and the kids are trying to take cuts.

Love this! If you increased the contrast, the photo would be much nicer. In black and white photography...your blacks should be black and your whites shold be white. This is all grey tones rigt now.

One of the top shots in the challenge for sure. 10

I love street candid and this is one I love a lot! The expressions, the action, the implied story ... very well done
Post actions
Nice catch - you probably have enough comments about Grandpa being caught mid-blink. Nice mood in BW. Bumping up.
Post actions
You've captured a nice candid moment here. I can almost hear Grandpa's voice... Great job!
Post actions
A great capture! One of my favorites.

I love a shot that "speaks for itself." City life is certainly represented here, but it also captures a small, seemingly ordinary moment and brings attention to it in a unique and interesting way. I think the composition is PERFECT because it has just that slight bit of street under the curb which represents the danger to which the subject is eluding to with gesture. Technically, I find it perfect as well, great tones! Good luck with this entry!

I'm not a typical fan of "candid", but I LOVE this shot. I also have very few "favorites", but this one is going there. One of only two tens in this challenge for me. Excellent.

Pap is doing a wonderful job here.

This is the perfect shot. I love the contrasting tones in it. I love how it tells a story as grandpas arm protectively keeps his grandchildren safe. Great capture!

Very nice, love the story and character of this photo. Great job!

Great candid shot. The black+white work is really good, plenty of contrast without being overly dramatic.

I love the look of that grandpa, I wish I had one of those. What a great short. It is sharp where it needs to be, the only issue is, is the black and white overkill, or as a colour did it not work?
Post actions
A wonderfully captured moment. There are so many things I like about this shot. The way they're all carrying the same bag, the way his hand is gently telling them to stop, the questioning look that the one boy has, and the way they're lined up tallest to shortest. One of my favorite shots of the challenge. Well done!
Post actions

Stay out of the street. Didn't your daddy teach you anything? I'm gonna have to talk to that boy.
Post actions
I like the expression of grandpa. Everyone can feel what he is saying very well without hearing the words. Good capture.
Post actions
Nice shot. Nothing to fault in my eyes.
Post actions
Stop right there little fellow, before crossing look left and right and left again... Good documentary shot of life in the city, wonderful toning.
