    Ah, I wish those two guys on the left were not in the scene. But WYSIWYG. You can't do much about the placement of the subjects in street photography. Nice shot, Jiro. Very interesting.

    Thanks, Sahil. That's exactly the beauty and the challenge of street photography - timing and composition.

    I am just back from holiday/vacation and am trying to catch up with some of what I missed over the last 3 weeks.

    This one is is a beauty. The important lesson for me from viewing the development of your street photography work, is that any genre is not something in which we can immediately be an expert. You have now worked on this over a period of time and as well as enhancing your technical skills, I think, and I hope you agree, that you artistic abilities and skills have also developed significantly.

    So, although some people might think that they can just pick up a camera and start producing high quality street photography, what you have shown us is that it takes dedicated commitment to produce work of the sort of quality we see in this image.
