Wow. I must be getting way out of touch with the viewers/voters...I thought this was a very well done image, certainly deserving of a score higher than sub 5. I gave it an 8 - shows what I know, eh? :-D

Ok, so maybe the exposure could have been brought up a little, but sub 5 score? I thought this was clever, and so it seems did the commenters overall. Hmmm.

Ok. Somebody PLEASE explain this one to me. I was hoping to get some details after the challenge finished as I am curious. No location, no cool story...

What is this place? Who are the people in the background? What does the title mean?

Thanks! :-D

I never got around to commenting on images for this challenge and certainly wanted to come back to this one. It was my top pick for the challenge. :-)

For this to not reach at least a score of 6 is bizzare IMO. The DOF is perfect. The stone you selected is a great color choice for the pavement background. Very nice touch on the angle to show enough of the hopscotch "board" to tell the story.

All around, a very nice piece of work.

That was fun! From reading the comments I see there was a connection to the movie for a couple of people. Cool! :-) Thanks everyone.

This is a shot I could see myself taking and my wife and kids going "put the camera away now". :-) This is fun to look at. Well framed and the eye easily moves into the image to follow the lineup. Nicely done!

I like how you've put this together. The earth tones are right on the money for the subject, and the tilt sets up the composition in a way that is pleasing to the eye. Creative and well done! Good luck in the challenge.

Minimalistic framing. :-) Clever. Good eye to see this. Not only is the framing part fun, the rest of the image is pleasing to look at with nice bright colors and subjects of interest. Good luck in the challenge.

Good eye to see this. It's like the viewer is getting a glimpse of someone else's moment peeking thru the shades, although I doubt the performer would mind. :-) Well done!

I like the color tone...gives it a feeling of wintertime cold with the blue. Nice positioning of the bird in your comp. Technicals are on the mark (DOF, focus, etc...). Should do ok with this one. Good luck!
