I am always amazed by the number of people, the variety of actions, and the lack of overlapping (for the most part at least here) that you are able to capture. While I truly believe that this is a candid caught moment it is hard for me (and my take on photography as it plays out in my work and experience) to understand how this (and many of your brilliant images) is not either painstakingly posed or a composite. Please dont take this as any kind of insult. It is far far from that. I so love and enjoy your work.
A tribute to this photo by muur88? There is certainly a slice of life here, and you have made a pretty ood job of getting that cinematographic stopped motion effect - although a bit of a shame there is still some movement in the boy in the foreground. i love the little vignettes - the police talking to the couple in the door way (a hooker and her pimp perhaps); the guy peering in through the window of the pub while the two men in front are making some sort of exchange, and the man to the right of the frame bending down to pick something up - something he has dropped or a coin he has spotted, I wonder.
On a technical note, there is something rather odd about the lighting on the man with the red top, his jeans particularly, although i can't quite work out what. A very interesting photo to view.
