I like the depth of field with the soft gait. He is free to go, but does not seem to the path to joy and happiness. Haunted by the broken family, one of whom is behind those bright windows. 9

I think it would have helped if the subject was looking at the camera, other than that this is a beautiful image

Oh I really like this. Nice how the stripe juxtaposition of the gate and his shirt oppose one another. Terrific tones and composition too.

Lovely candid portrait. The overlay works really well

Funny that you titled it with "talk" as there seems to be a silent interaction, or rather an unspoken communication between the two.

This is a great image. Wonderful use of the thirds and leading lines. Processing is superb. The one issue I have is we can't see the kids face, so the boredom is assumed by the viewer, but not confirmed... I initially gave this a 7 when voting, but on closer inspection while commenting, I think it's worthy of more. Reckon I'd give this a 9 or 10 if I had that confirmation I spoke about... still think an 8 is a bit harsh... a 9 is fair I think. Well done. Hope to see this with a ribbon beside it.
