Excellent street photo. I image this would look amazing in black and white as well.

This is a really busy composition, but it works very well for me. You managed to respond to the theme and tell a story. Terrific shot!

A wonderful slice of life street scene. I love the juxtaposition of the happy girl with the guy who looks depressed or exhausted, or at the very least, contemplative. And the hair salon next to the junk store. Great stuff.

The image alone is fabulous - the title somewhat questionable but I think you might be a foreigner. 10
