Shot off the hip. I caught these two chattering and gossiping just outside the library. I was tempted to process this in black and white, but couldn't part with those primary colors!

As a black and white gal at heart, I gotta say this is MARVELOUS use of color. Definitely wouldn't have the same feel or impact in B&W. And a great off-the-hip shot, too. I quite like the angles created with from the hip shooting. Great catch with this - vibrant because of the colors, but also because of the gossip!

This is an interesting photo, and I haven't offered critique on anything in a long time, so I may be a bit rusty...

This image does fit into the realm of street photography, but finding your idea within the image seems a little difficult for me. There is a good bit of competition within the image between the colorful news boxes and the two ladies chatting. There doesn't seem to be a connection between the two themes within the image. The strength of the color of the news boxes seems to command the most attention, and the ladies on the right become secondary to that element.

The question of black and white or color is purely a personal choice. In this particular case, black and white could possibly help balance the attention requirement between the left and right sides of the frame...
