She's English. They wear their shoes and socks on the beach!
Such a stellar example of why the best photos are about their subject, and not just of their subject.

This is one of the most interesting photos for this challenge, with the layers and types of transportation. Maybe a little more contrast would help? Love it.

I think skiprow means that there's something just wrong about a kid running through grass that lush and green with shoes and socks on. Any opportunity missed to go barefoot is a great loss.

Complicated! Wonderful! Contrast is at perfect level, I think if it were any more, my eyeballs would revolt. I like the ambiguity of the era depicted. There is a seriousness to this photo, but all the different patterns give it a whimsy too. Excellent. Thanks.

Three tiers of transport..brilliant. You missed the air transport. Should take a point off for that but I won't. 10

The visual interest here is the stacked layers of transportation, but it has worthy allegorical implications as well, in terms of the challenge topic. In so many aspects of city life, creative solutions to problems of space, time and motion must be found. They're often solutions that appear absurd to a country boy like me, yet to the city dweller they don't even rate a second glance or thought. Congratulations on finding an opportunity to portray city life both literally and figuratively.

I love the use of the long lens here for the greater DOF. The multiple transportation vehicles very cool. Great exposure and sharpness - nicely done.
