What are they holding? by Matthew Roberts, on Flickr

I like this Matt. You're developing a real eye for the genre including a more gritty conversion technique which suits it (IMHO).

Thanks John, the 2 main advantages of street photography over landscapes I've discovered are that I don't have to get up at 4am and the subject matter is basically everywhere!

Well seen, Matt. Good catch.

The good eye extends to the distant wall, protruding blocks, sun angle, awning angle as well as the two main characters holding things.

This is almost BOGOF

Cheers, Dave

Nicely done.

Perhaps one is holding onto the future, the other...the past. Nice picture.

Thanks all.

Ron, I like that!

Matt, you've got these diagonals all leading to the guy, very excellent. The side-by-side of the man and the child in the poster is excellent as well. I might suggest trying to pull a bit more detail out of the man's jacket and pants, a bit too dark maybe? But otherwise another great shot.

Nicely seen, Matt. Another great one.

Matt, great shot. You have started something new considering your other work. Good work.
Cheers Ole
