Wonderful portrait, as is the one that inspired it. Very inspiring. I just may have to go visit my father and do the same! Thanks for the wonderful shot and the inspiration!

This was my favorite in the challenge. Not so much that it tells a story, it does to some extent, but nearly all the elements in the photo are perfect. It is a still-life of humanity. The officer on one side (with the one red sock), the guy to the right with the same expression, but a different posture. The perfect framing and lighting. The square shapes, mixed the with the circles and the straight lines. Really, just a perfect shot. I give you a 9 for this challenge, 10 if it were in a free study.

The lighting is fantastic and the composition, with these almost staged looking characters is very interesting. So many different focus points in the photograph makes it amusing to look at.

Wow, what an iteresting place! Obviously the place isnt a mansion, but I dont know that it says poverty either. I love the background with the city, just such a mix of old and new. Good shot, just needs more "poverty" to me

Nice colors in this picture. Nice dov and focus. You can see by the way the house boat looks that they live a hard life on the river. Looks like they survive day to day by fishing. Nice reflection on the still waters as well.
