I like starting around the 5.5 range because those are usually pictures that have promise, but lacked something to put them over the top. The scene here is obviously interesting as well as colorful. Overall I think the picture lacks some contrast (probably mainly in the sky). I tend to like to burn the edges of shots like this to really zero in on the subject, although here you have two comepting subjects. Although I wasn't there and so don't know what's outside the picture, I would have thought about swinging around to the left for two purposes: 1) remove the background people who detract from the ambiance and 2) get more of the subject's faces. I can see why you chose it for Best of the Year. The scene definitely had promise.

My first impression of the picture was WOW and upon a closer look I was disappointed by the 3 non-costumed people included in the center of the picture (and on the left side). It's one of those cases were you have improved your score from me by the title you gave it which for me is a very positive attitude, intention, belief...

interesting candid. I think I would prefer just the person on the left though.

Very well exposed to maintain the details. Very colourful and has nice sky.
