This is my very first entry. I don't have high expectations, but I hope to be above a 5 at least, so please be gentle with your voting ;)
I saw this guy playing his guitar and singing on the streets of KL, near Central Market. I gave him a few Ringgit in exchange to be able to take his photos. This one appealed to me the most, due to his epxression.
This is also new territory for me, as I don't do many candid shots - I stick with still life for the most part. So we'll see how I do.

Thank you for your comments. I'll try to be more obvious on my subject for the next entry.

Excellent candid capture, though the background elements are distracting. 8

This would not really meet the challenge without the title.

Nice, full of emotion and action. Not too blurry, considering he was playing the guitar. Good job.

I think perhaps a bit of a stretch for this challenge, though a nice image.

He's not selling me anything.

Good composition. His face is perhaps a bit too dark. Seeing as it is an advanced editing challenge, I would add a vignette or burn in the background a bit just to highlight the subject a little.

I like the picture a lot. Would hit harder on the "For Sale" theme if we could see his collection jar.
