i'm giving a 5, just because the color contrast is nice to the eye -- but otherwise it's not really interesting and certainly not "bizarre"

I'm glad to know soccer is at the end of the world : ) Nice subject.

Your title would be more fitting if the mechanical parts were not in view. I think this would have benefited from the rule of thirds - the horizon line should not be in the center of the photo.

I like the composition of this, but the sepia is too much for me. Great photo.

Perfect for the challenge. I am not sure about the toning though--seems to be "rose" colored. I think this would be more effective in regular B&W. Other small distracting details are in the distant background but interact with the foreground elements: the white object that seems to be coming from one boys ear; the man walking in the background between two of the main characters.

Still, overall, a very good photo and in my top 10 for the challenge. The boy on the left is a strong photo just by himself.

good concept but a little dark on the faces. I also would like to have seen this in color and maybe a little tighter crop on the right, my eye is drawn to the branch

Very real and very harsh picture. Accurately depicts an impoverished existance. Photography-wise, the landscape is nicely exposed, but the shadows on the children's faces are a bit too dark.
