 I love that fact that the lady (during the Queen's Jubilee precession) was sporting her wonderful lush tiara and absolutely nobody (except some photographer) had noticed the guy cowering in the doorway begging for food.

I like the contrast in life, same street, same time, totally different

How in the world did you manage to find a woman wandering around with a tiara?! Could not possibly have made your point any better.

Wow, it's especially powerful that the lady walking past has a tiara.

I think you captured the story behind the title very well. Great job.

The lady wearing the crown is a hoot. Nice street shot.

Terrific juxtaposition, although I'd have given it a good crop off the left

Funny this image is on another site and looks twice as good over there,perhaps you have two versions ?
Shame as this has lost a lot of its pow wow.

This requires a longer look to absorb the scene. In some ways, I wonder if the composition (or framing) would have given this an entirely different feel/message if adjusted to include more of the crowd. I do wonder what sort of event this is. Are they lined up, or just passing by. Your choice to center the despondent looking guy amongst a crowd that appears not to care fits the message in your title, but there is the lady behind the tiera lady that seems to be giving the guy a hard look... A photo to ponder. Will be interesting to see where this lands in a free study. Also will be interested to read your notes on the context of the photo.
