Like the "EEP" sign ;-) Nicely decrepit scene.

Fantastic retro feel to the shot. Both poses are perfect and I love the slight rebellious look to the boy with a smart shirt ("my mother made me wear this") but the casual trainers and white socks.
Great crop on the right, allowing some depth to show but pegging the eye to the front with the table and glass.
The image as a whole tells the story, no title required. That's my measure of a great photo.

I hate it when it rains on my lunch

When my friend Beverly and I would ride way out in the Texas countryside, we would ALWAYS see vultures somewhere along the way. It got to be rather humorous after awhile - we'd just call out "We aren't dead yet!" but would always think in the back of our minds that cyclists on roadways in Texas were a pretty good bet for vultures....

They sometimes collect around the dumpsters at the local restaurants in this area too. They hunt by smell and sight, and have learned that they can sometimes get a free meal there.

Well done - this is a great image. I imagine one could fine a commmercial use for this image it's that good convering the challenge subject matter. Should place high if not a ribbon.

LOL maybe that's a warning to not eat there! :-) Wish there were such obliging vultures in my neighbourhood.

Great composition. An instant classic.
The only thing keeping me from rating it 10* is a fishy perspective.
What's going on? Anyway the characters almost hide it.

Excellent!!! I think this nails the challenge theme. Composition and color are good, maybe a little "processed" looking, but this is my high-score thus far (88% voted).
