That rigid stride and the family looking on are great. The flare works here too.

I thought I commented on this. Sorry! I like it a lot. The actors (?) alone make a great pic, but framing the poor, unamused looking fellow on the right was a touch of genius. Don't know if he's part of the act or not, but the lighthearted tension is good. (A missed opportunity, but this would have been a good candidate for the current Bored challenge.)

Ouch. You got robbed. I gave this a 9 and bumped it up to a 10 before rollover. Something about this really grabs me.

Extra pointage for making me stop to examine this curious photo more closely.

Love the triangular shape of the red jackets and umbrellas. Wonder what was going on ... or did you really set it all up?

This is quite fun. No idea what they're doing, but it's still fun!

OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy). I'll be picking one of these images for the Mu (most underrated) award:

Positives: Not a sight yo see everyday and it certainly makes me wonder what is happening. There is a good range of colours and the red jackets and umbrellas are well balanced by the sky. I like the reflection of the sun in the windows too.

Critical stuff: Though this is an interesting scene the centre building is a little ugly and it does rather dominate.

Overall: I can see why you took a shot of this intriguing scene but whether it works as an offering in a free study - I'm not so sure. Having said all that, I am really interested in finding out what this was all about!
