Tam Tams, every Sunday, so damn cool. People from all walks of life go to Mont Royal to play tam tams and chill: pot smoking hippies, office workers, homeless people, students, professors etc. You cannot find this in any other western country in the world: Only in Montreal Quebec (not that it's a country of its own, but it's different from the rest of Canada).

So if any of you ever come to Montreal in the summer, be sure to go to Tam Tams on Sundays.

this is by the way my first candid photograph. I am terrified of candid photography, especially when one has to deal with competition like "goodman" hehe. Oh well. It's about learning. Hope you guys like.

more of a photojournalism style than candid

Nice work - great detail, dynamic, processing. My only gripe would be that there is no interaction of the people here - no-one seems to have contact with anyone else: the four primary characters seem to be in their own world. Still, as I said, nice work.

I really like this - the mood works with the clutter of people. Good timing. 7

I don't usually like comments or give them, but since candids are near and dear to my heart, I have decided to comment on every photo in this challenge.

I think there were a few of you at this same rally. I see this woman to the right in another image. Anyway, its a candid capture, but not one particular thing stands out to me other than the woman is interesting looking. Too much going on. Would have liked to see a closer shot of maybe just the center man or woman to the right. It's a 5 vote from me.
