Absolutely perfect for this challenge and an awesome photograph on its own right. So many stories here. The main story of the gentleman on the bench, aside from the others, in a B&W tone different than the rest (nice touch, that.) The light on him, whether actual or slightly enchanced, is very nice. Then there's the rest of the story at the top of the steps. Congratulations on a wonderful find and taking full advantage of it.

I like the contrast here, both in terms of the story-telling aspect and the processing. Nice work!

This is a winner. My favorite in the challenge. My only 10.
You captured a great moment. You captured so much in this shot. It really speaks to the viewer like a photograph is intended too. Great eye! You did a really good job with the PP. You were borderline of doing too much but I think it came out brilliant. I love it. There is something wrong if this doesnt place in the top 3. Although I think it should be 1st. I cant even tell you how much I love the composition. Brilliant, just brilliant.

This works fairly well for me, I see the context between the individual counting change and the people eating. At the same time since the man look well dressed the counting of change doesn't seem to necessarily coincide with the dining area, but more of a coincidence. Still I like the idea here and the toning/lighting is terrific. Highly rated.

One of my top picks for this challenge. Great compositon, and a very strong story/message with this photograph.

You know, this challenge is full of a ton of pictures of people just thinking they can snap anything on the street, convert to B&W and enter it. Only a few try to tell a story. This is absolutely one of them. I thought I had seen the winner already, but I changed my mind. Auto 10 and a fav.

Beautiful image. So many stories in what seems almost like 2 separate pictures, with the light and dark.
