 Shot at a festival. This picture has many problems, I'm afraid; had one day to shoot and less than an hour for post. But I'm hoping for MonkeyPoints to put me in the low 5's.

Forgot the camera was set to ISO 3200 (!). Thank you, neatimage.

Cute but could use a little fill lighting.

The mans face gets lost in the background...

nice moment and DOF but the BW conversion leaves a bit lacking imo. Good Luck

Obviously it is a common occurance for this man to have a monkey on his neck. Such, blase in his expression. The separation from the crowd in both color and DOF could be strengthened, yet still interesting.

good composition. I like the differences in their facial expressions

Unusual image although the tones are a bit soft for my taste. If these could have been beefed up along side the contrast it would really make the main subject of the image stand out more

Like the frame composition

Nice capture - Needs some contrast though as those blacks are weak.

low contrast hurts this - blacker blacks would be better IMO

A little soft on the edges.
