 I got just one shot of these guys.. As most of my work this is a pure candid; shot from a moving car so any compositional improvements were impossible..

I think this challenge's winner will be a more studio based shot.. so mine will suck exponentially compared to them.. Its busy and I decided to keep it in colour making it more busier but it was criminal to take away the colour. At least no one can berate me for a lack of tools..

I had plenty more shots of other people and I actually feel disappointed I can't put them all in.

And this image would have sucked without the 800!

I love drive-by shots, a game of chance with few winners. I get the impression every tool here is necessary, as was your choice to present it in color. This is a winner.

This is such a busy shot. I think a more narrow focus, or a narrower subject selection would have improved this shot. Too much competing for my attention, and it feels oversharpened.

I find this image fascinating to look at. The composition works for me.

nice a colorful, might have cropped out some of the Junk on the far let (not the bicycle wheels as that space does not add to the picture IMO

Gritty work and a hard life. Nice street shot showing most or all of their tools.
