Interesting capture. A little heavy on the contrast and blacks though.

I like the detachment of the vendor; I'm wondering what he's thinking working whilst everyone else is socialising. This is the essence of Jagar.

I'll guess Ring-billed Gull, Larus delawarensis. The breast feathers appear slightly blown out , but they are in the sunshine. I see the ruffled feathers. Meets the challenge.

Sea-pigeons are a great subject. I like the cool blue color on this one. I think this could be improved with a longer shutter speed. You got the focus down ok. But I think you could have metered of the feathers on the breast, instead of off the blue feathers. The feathers on the breast are brighter and you would have gotten maximum detail with a shorter shutter speed by metering off the highlight area of the breast.

With a bit of PP this could of looked more interesting, it just looks a bit stale and boring though!! Maybe black and white would of helped the scene, and softening the trees, or using a larger aperture to blur out the background next time.

You have the comp spot on though ;) I gave you a 6.

looks like a great time... works well with the two hooded figures and the other dark enough to emulate the shape.
