I'm trying to appreciate distance in this even with the relection.

I like the use of blur to suggest activity. I do wish some of the subjects were engaged in something more interesting.

strong colourful and interesting image but little sense of distance

Nice street photo, but I probably would rather attribute it to [user]Penny_Street[/user] than to bspurgeon :)

I find this very good. The entire story, the ignored messenger, the Woody Allen type a bit freaked out, the hustle and bustle .... Perhaps I find this image very familiar to me - an ubiquitous scene around Times Square in Manhattan - but a familiar scene does not make a good shot.
Congratulations for a great candid.

Looked at this a long time. Became fascinated by the hairless mannequins & the cafe crowd across the street, the traffic in the street. The Life in the street. At first I was impressed by the simple perfection of the black and white. After a while, it dawned on me that this is a Really Excellent Street Shot. Not an instant fav, because it took me a while to appreciate it. But definitely a fav. 10

I really like the setting and processing, but the people in the foreground are such a big part of the image, yet they don't really add to the drama of the image. Had somehow you gotten more out of the folks on the sidewalk, this image would have been a sure ribbon, as is its a top ten.
