One of the best in this, I must admit, quite mediocre bunch of photos shot on street (which, as we know, doesn't necessarily qualify as street photography).

after reading the comments, I now can't get this picture out of my head.
I must have known, subliminally, because I gave it a 7

Thanks Ben, glad you got it. It's about all what you said, but also about the way we are hiding from our accumulating problems, and relying on steel prosthesis (military) to stand upright... But it was a misfire, you're right.

Great use of depth of field and very nice sharpness. I can't tell if the man is getting a newspaper or hiding from the camera.
