I had another shot entered that I took on the 1st Oct and thought nothing would replace it. Then I got this shot towards the end of the month and I've been torn about which one to enter. I love this shot and feel it's one of the best I've taken. That doesn't mean it will have a popular appeal. I guess I would be a little disappointed if this doesn't reach the 6's. It is a FS and not too sure how well street photography score's compared to sharp macro's, stunning landscapes and beautiful portraits.

haven't heard that word in awhile.... of course I haven't heard any good sax playing in awhile either. I like the way you isolated the performer from the background. Good one.
In this rare case I think the blown highlights actually help the busker stand out more which together with the background detail we have makes for a great image, good luck
