i'm completely drawn into this image...standing in the sun trying to keep warm...balloons and candy...hearing the drum cadence, faintly at first then getting louder and louder as the parade finally makes it's way to where you're standing. i'm a child again at a parade.
I love this idea of a partial subject (or two) mysteriously creating a story through the lack of obvious detail... In this one though I wish that the characters were a little less blacked out.8
I'm glad your title was "Parade"; otherwise, I wouldn't have a clue what I was looking at, I'm afraid. Sometimes less is better when it comes to Photoshop.
