An eye-catching and powerful image. VERY well done. The colors of the children's clothing jump right out at us and pull the eye to the kids, who are perfectly positioned in this.
I don't know your feelings on editing, but if I could make a suggestion, the mortar patch on the doorjam to the right and above the kids is a distraction. I myself would get rid of it, or at least darken it up. If you're strictly into realism, then never mind. It's a beautiful shot as it stands.
Hya Treepusher I can assure you I thought long and hard about that patch of morter and it stayed simply because I thought this picture was definitely in the street genre and if I possibly can I avoid removing stuff with street unless it screams at you. Normal photo it would have gone I just believe one owes it to street to leave as is when possible.
Probably wrong my friend so indulge me please.
Thanks for taking the trouble to look and comment. Your views are always appreciated.
