80 Nov 21 Comment Thank you Mo. I don't know the full story of what was going on either, but I find that is one of the charms of street photography, ambiguous images where you can see different stories or themes in them. Nov 26th
80 Nov 21 Comment I do like the original, I think it is an excellent street image.

It does look like it could use a little cropping on the left and bottom.

80 Nov 21 Comment The woman looks to me to be very relaxed, has a knowing glance as she watches the world go by. It would be interesting to get her perspective on what she sees.

I like the composition, for me it forms a circular eye movement through the composition, the woman looking at you, follow her arms to her hands, up the back of the chair on the right, to the man in the TV, who is looking back down on the woman's head scarf. There is a lot of interesting detail to explore in this image. The color pallet is wonderful too; split tone red-yellow vs blue-green.

I do not care for the oil painting treatment of this image; it makes her eyes look weird, more like cat-eyes. It would be nice to see the original image.

To make the circular eye movement stronger, try brightening the greens of the the chair on the right of the image.

80 Nov 21 Comment In street photography we are often looking at the relation between things, in this image I am looking at the relationship between the sign and Andy with his head in a bucket, and the couple behind with the stroller looking at Andy, as well as his choice of being on a pedestrian street. I like the contrast between the positivity expressed in his sign and the disapproving glance of the woman with the baby carriage. This must be a hard way to earn a living.

I see an arrangement of the elements in the image sort of as an inverted triangle, which gives to me a feeling of instability. I think this adds to the theme of the image, optimistic but unstable.

For me the lighting in the image looks a little under exposed, it could be brightened up a bit. The bright orange dress of the lady in the upper left is a bit of an eye pull distraction. I would consider cropping her out. I would also consider cropping up a little from the bottom as that area is not adding much to the image.
