Morning after a big Night on the Town.

A worthwhile capture. The near wax-like face and stoic expression, all wrapped in Sunday's best vs. the ridicilous reflective purple of the hat... quite a stretch!

I like the lighting (the navy is still navy, the eyes visible through the shades, the skin tone very credible. What I'd wish for would be a shallower dof (a blurred/less busy background) and a different composition or crop placing the subject much further left, so that he would walk/look through the width of the shot. It may not be as simple to crop out the ribboned gift at the bottom right without interfering with the flag above it. A somewhat wider shot, however, may have included the whole thing (and possibly the hand that bore it)...

Despite this, a wild and interesting find!

I like the lighting

I like the framing of this shot with the heads of spectators. Usually, it works against a photo. I don't think it does here.

Good timing, but theres too much crowd, and the background is too cluttered.
