Hmm, the shopfront components in the area of the guy are plumb, if anything, to my eye, it wants to rotate counter clockwise, but that is only by the tiniest amount... it's all in the eye of the beholder :-)

I'm following the leading line to the back and the people's feet. Look at the pipe going up the building.

I had seen that and thought about correcting that distortion but there isn't enough real estate to do that. I felt it was more important to keep the elements around the guy vertical.

I suspected such. I was afraid you might lose the pooches nose.

It is great as it is.

Like this a lot but would have liked to see more space above his head as my first reaction was he looks hemmed in. Hope that makes a change from" you want to crop a bit tighter" :D

Good observation, Bigal. I see it now that you mention it.

Hello Alan, give a man a break, I'd already stood there for about 20 mins waiting for a gap in the crowds. A warm Saturday in August and Cambridge is packed with tourists and shoppers. Two seconds later I was trampled by a bus load of visitors from China ;-)

I love the color! I love that odd looking dog :). However, I love the color and detail on the instruments so much!

The top left corner is distracting to me a little, but overall, I love this image.

Except for shoppers sounds much like being in the U.S. National Parks in the summer.
