Thanks Mike, but don't be shy, can you please give me yours? There is always room for improvement. Perhaps your your version if you have the time?

I rotated it a little and cropped the bottom of the image to get rid of the curb.

There is something in this photo that you could not control and that is the lighting. The subjects are very much backlighted causing their features to be in dark shade. It is something to think about when taking photos that you can control where the lighting is coming from. Perhaps there were street scenes coming from the other direction that would have been better lighted. Enjoy and continue to ask for input on your photos.

Thanks SoHillGuy for taking the time to comment on my first ever post here. I couldn't believe when it showed up in my e-mail. Thanks for pointing that out and I can now see where I have failed.

I took the photo for my local photographic group, not a club, just a group that gets together who are interested in photography and I saw the lady pushing the crates. It is a sleepy town and nothing exciting happens here. We were suppose to take a street scene.

I don't believe you failed, you captured an interesting action photo of a street scene. Comments are given to make us think more about the scenes we may be taking and how a different viewpoint might improve them.

Thanks SoHillGuy and I have taken those well intended comments on board. I look forward to your critique the next time I buck up courage to post in this section. All critiques on my photo are very much appreciated.
