Lose what he's balancing in the shadows. Good capture all the same.

I think it fits the challenge well, but the composition doesn't work for me. The legs of the gentlemen are cut off in odd places,the focus is too soft, and the scene is cluttered. I think a black and white convertion would add to this shot. Nice job being observant to your suroundings. 4

Pretty glum looking people and quite a lot of litter all over the ground. I'm sure they are silent as they aren't talking to each other but the image as a whole does not convey a strong feeling of silence to me. As for the composition....you chopped the guys legs off and the photo would be much improved if you had stood a bit further back. Also you cropped a bit to close to the tops of their heads. 4

Great shot all around and the title is perfect. The only thing I wish about the photo is their legs hasn't been cropped off. 7

I'm sorry, I think the picture could be much better. The skin tones look too red, though I like the red in the background and on the bench. It looks soft, and I'm not sure about cropping them off.

HOWEVER, I gave you an 8 because I think it really speaks to the category! I've never given an 8 unless I thought the photo was spectacular. But something about this scene really speaks to me.
