Nicely caught, I like the framing a lot even though it's a wide angle. The colors work great too (brown/purple). I think maybe if you zoomed in or cropped off the blue doors at the end it'd look even better -- just the 3 purple doors.

Comment by chariot:
its funny... one of the things I read was that the subject should fill the frame, but I kind of enjoy him actually being small. .with no one around himit gives you the impression that he's alone.

Comment by Kimbly:
Pretty repetition of those purple doors. Interesting subject, too. If it were my photo, I think I might have been tempted to try cropping way down to eliminate the non-purple doors on the right, which would make the subject a little more off-center, I think. Also, the fact that the door isn't parallel with the edge of the frame bothers me a bit.

Lovely lighting and colours. I feel it would have benefitted by being cropped tighter on the right hand side,.

This is really nice. I like how his rear end is hovering above the ground to keep his pants clean.... This is a posture I know well. He looks good against the pale wall with the pastel shutters.

Excellent catch. Colors, pose, and composition make it my top choice. A 10.

What is the poin? Need to focus on the subject. I close up of the face with the hat may have been more compelling. Get close and personal.

Well composed shot! I know it's hard to take shots ofpeople, but I would have tried for a more acute angle and a lower apeture to blur the background.

Comment by Swashbuckler:
Good photo. Could you have filled the frame with the subject more? (What is in his right hand? espresso?) I like the three purple doors, but could have lived w/o the slatted doors and brick.
