Greeting from the CC!

THEME: respected! Nice interpretation.

LIGHTING & FOCUS: Good levels. Nothing really disturbing on that side. Nothing to say about the focus cuz it'S spot on.

COLOR: The desaturation of colors works well here as red emphasises passion and anger. And since the photo has a lot going on, the red focuses our eye to certain key elements. Good job!

COMPOSITION: I understand you crop trying to keep the black guy in your frame and the guy with the cone. But I would've cropped it tighter on the right to get rid of some of the action (like the guy in the foreground). Capturinf a shot seeing the guy yelling through the cone would've had a better impact for this challenge.

All in all a good photojournalism shot!

Keep it up!

good shot, better suited for a photo-journalism challenge, but unique enough for me to give you an 8

Very busy shot - but good color on the subject to set it off from the rest.

A lively shot. I can feel the hustle and bustle and the sound.

Definitely shows sound. The only thing that confuses me is it looks like a protest or something, but the guy on top looks so relaxed and happy, or something.

This shot seems somewhat busy, although I suppose it would stand reasonably well as a photojournalism shot. Definitely connection to the challenge topic.

An intriguing picture... what's going on?! The desaturated colours other than red work well here. Nice piece of photojournalism. 9

It looks like there was a lot of stuff going on here. While the idea is good, and definitely meets the challenge, this has a "snapshot" feel to it. The sky is quite washed out and the colors are a little dull.
