Not unlike the performance of many of my own cycling related shots. My cycling friends think they are great and wow over them, but DPC greets them with a big fat "MEH". But then, our cycling buddies are not impressed by the ability to ride 40 miles. That's an average morning ride. Our photography friends think 40 miles is an unbelievable distance and that we are insane.

It's all relative.

Lovely interaction shot. The child is inquisitive but non-committal :) The Pelican is wary but non-plussed. Great seaside candid.

I love all the elements of this photo. I just wish the kid and the bird weren't so far into the corners - it makes them feel disconnected to me.

See the light

Street photography is about capturing a scene that is usually accepted by more viewers if it has some unusual interest. It's not about how the final image is processed. Street photography should be minimal editing, not advanced. Too many think it has to be some eye appealing thing, it does not. If this image makes you smile, then by all means, continue with what makes you smile.
