Just managed to get this one shot. Didn't have a polarizer with me -- don't know if it would have helped or not. Post Processing in PS: curves, dodge, burn levels.

Interesting shot. I like the other onlooker in the window, it really adds another dimension to the shot. A polarizer might have helped in this shot, but a good take at a slice of life!
Very interesting candid, took me a moment to notice the woman shopkeeper looking - with it has to be said a fair degree of suspicion at teh chap outside
You got out and grabbed a candid of some strangers, so well done! Keep pushing your comfort zone though, it's usually better if you can see most of the face. Find out how to straighten a photo... this is wonky. If you have text in a photo, make sure it's all visible. The composition feels a little too stretched here, there's too much space in the middle. It's hard to know where the eye can rest comfortably. A man being interested in some food in a shop window isn't quite enough interest for me. It's too mundane and everyday.
