personally i love the background. you've got a great contrast between life and death (life in the background of course). And if you had just taken a pic of the headstones, I think it would have been a boring pic!

enjoy the composition, only complaint is it is a tad soft

I think that this is more of a memory shot than a submission picture. There are spectators at the bottom of the image that take away from the actual potential that this image has. There are people in the background that makes the view look there. IMO there are to many distracting objects in this image.

Looks like you had a good time though.

Good Luck

Unfortunately, I don't think the lighting is working in your favour.

unfortunately your lighting of the prime subjects on stage did not work well in this shot, I've found that an electronic fill flash (a really really long one!) helps me get these kinds of difficult shots, it is however well focused

yet another holiday snapshot of the same festival. Did anyone on this challenge go to anything except cinco de mayo?
Seems a bit blurred, the crowd is distracting.

not very sharp ... wish you'd gotten closer to bring out the details in their costumes
