Comment by Lonni:
Very pretty image, but not real convincing, sorry. I live in Sydney and I haven't seen any street kids lately, particularly ones dressed so well :)

A bit too much photoshop for me

I don't think your post processing supports the picture. I'm guessing but it looks like you used too much noise reduction.

Also, the street kid is barely in the photo. The beautiful view is overwhelmingly nice, but it doesn't add to an impoverished feel. Although it is a sad situation I think it could have been captured better without worrying so much about the scenery.

This looks to me like a boy sitting on a sidewalk, but somehow poverty is not implied. I'm also not fond of the processing done to this one.

Nice colours but I tend to agree with what others have said, not quite exciting enough ... maybe removing the top level of items and adding more cups to form a pattern (with a different cup in there somewhere to add some interest)

Extraordinarily strange composition; has good punch

My only thought was uninspiring, sorry if that sounds harsh but as I am only commenting I think it best to be honest so it may help some people.

Whilst in a way it meets the challenge it's a bit dare I say it boring... and also looks a little soft :(

While this fits the challenge topic very well... it's just not an exciting subject for a photograph, I fear.
