I think if you create a vignette using the radial brush, you might be able to darken the areas behind the group and create some separation. I like the background group in the photo because to me it creates a sense of place. |

Beverly, in my mind street photography shows stories of people in their natural environment and when editing is so extreme as to become the story itself, the photo is no longer showing a natural environment. In that case, in my mind, the photo is no longer in the genre of street photography. The comments here about your photo and your response to one are about the Topaz editing, To me the Topaz editing overshadows whatever story you might want to tell about the musician.
I've seen discussions on other street sites about the amount editing that is acceptable. As far as I know, none of the sites accept Topaz filters or other extreme editing as acceptable editing for street photography.
The members of this site need to decide whether such extreme editing is within the bounds of what is acceptable. I do not think it should be. But y'all may out vote me. |

To me this is not "street photography" but crosses into the genre of digital art. |

Adorable street portrait! I looks to me that you were kind of restricted by the other people in the background. I'm wondering what this would look like if you included more of the scene. |

Beverly, it's not an overlay, it's a reflection.
Jim and Ron, thank you for your comments. |

When I was walking along the cliffs of Mohr there was barbed wire on my left and wind was blowing me into it. More disconcerting was the sign that read: "Electrical Fence, Stay Away!" <eek>
I think this is an awesome story of family love! The expression on the woman's face as she's being towed and pushed up the steep hill is precious. You got some interaction with the woman in the back wearing sunglasses, which adds to the story.
The shadow on the man's face caused by his cap is distracting to me. I think it you used the adjustment brush to open up the shadow, the photo may be that much stronger. |

I really like the idea of the shot through the window and I think it has a nice feel to it. Focus looks sharp and exposure looks good to me.
The window looks crooked to me and I think it should be straightened. I would prefer a wider view, maybe including some of the original photo on the left might give it more of a sense of place. |

Wow, forbidden fruit -- juicy :-) I think the focus and exposure are spot on.
For my taste there is too much going on and I can't get a sense of a cohesive story. The children in the water, the people on the left and those are the right compete for my attention. The big branch in the top foreground is distracting to me. I don't know how to fix this post. I didn't like anything I tried. |
