 this guy's sign says it all. as we walked by, he'd say "just a smile". whether or not it's your interpretation of irony is to be decided. Apparently entertainers need money too.

Yes, I did crop the head and the elbow. I thought it looked best that way, unfortunately I think my score suffered because of it. Thanks for the thoughts.

That's funny. "Your smile is my payment - but money is even better." :-D

I think if you had stood back a little further you could've prevented cutting off the man's head.

I don't like that the top of his head is cut off, otherwise nice pic.

I think you made a mistake in cutting off his head (and elbow). Otherwise, good focus all around.

Interesting. I would like it better if his head wasn't cut off but it still tells a good story. :) Good luck
