edit for submit: crop, sharpen once, save as - entry
It was a hazy summer day - I didn't know how to edit for cripsness - but then, crisp was not part of the theme I wanted to capture. Boys of Summer is what I wanted and it should be a snapshot view...or enlighten me ;)

It's a shame deb because this really did deserve a higher score. And look - 6 people thought it was better than a 6!!! So cherish that and ignore the 51 people who love to use the 4 and below buttons.
I think with just a big of lightning up on their faces (to counteract the brightness of the background), you would have put a little more focus on the boys.
Nice shot, but the boys ended up too dark. The right two almost have their face hidden. For advance editing I would have liked to see your main subjects a bit brighter...
Good capture. The car is distracting, so unless you just really, really, really needed the boy on the right, I think a crop of just the three on the left would be more effective.
