Several different elements all coming together nicely.

Looks like two kids and one won't share. Nicely done.

Hi Melania,

If I had shot this, I would consider a square crop from the right hand edge.

I suggest this in order to lose the large area of uninteresting structural block on the left and place the 'friends' in the lower left corner, looking 'into' the rest of the frame - and out across the water, contemplating who knows what.

Hope that's helpful, Dave

Much to like little to dislike. Nice capture.

Melania,
Well seen and taken.
This is an interesting shot that has a brooding atmosphere to it as the subjects seem to be discussing some very serious topic under a sullen clouded sky.
I especially like the similar curves to their backs.
I tend to agree with David's suggestion to crop, however, I'd suggest that it be a bit less severe than he has suggested so that a bit of the wall to our left of the subjects remain to anchor the composition on the left edge of the frame.
Regardless, a nice bit of street photography.

Thanks for your suggetion!

Definitely the figures should be on the left third .. the wall is overpowering them and the scene.
