| I am glad to see the hipster movement is a global phenomena. harks back to 80s punk chic, tight pants, button down shirts, old leather jackets sparsely speckled with paint, ruffled hair and moving in packs across a city near you. I bet atleast one of them had a white belt on and some slip on vans. :P |

| *sigh* And this is the kind of image that I came to this side-challenge for, and what I have been missing by not commenting (I've been in a commenting rut; I should always just go to your portfolio when that happens). Delightful. |

Great candid & entry for B/W!
Poor guy in the black coat! I wonder if walking nearer the buildings would help him avoid the pigeons... :} |

| Interesting candid capture. So much to look at even though all we can see is their backs. I like the varying tones in the shirts and jacket. |

| Don't laugh, but the first thing that caught my eye were their haircuts and ears. I don't know why! Then I see the spotted jacket and the man-purse. Who knew there could be so much to look at while observing someone from behind! |

| A different angle for something like this and it works perfectly. Good contrast and the slight tilt just adds so much, like they're all marching together and just leaned to the right. |

| Good example of street photography. I like the DOF and the close cropping to the subjects. |

| This is really good at what I'm terrible at...getting good candid shots. Even faceless, the photo is very interesting. It may be just DOF, but the blurred buildings in the background add to a feeling of motion in the photo. |

What I like about it is that it has such a strong urban feel, yet its a bold fill-the-frame close-up. So often urban scenes are expansive and have so much "stuff" in them, but this is direct and straight to the point. I like it. I like it that we're looking at them from behind -- like we're part of the scene but not intruding.
Nice job.

Ah, candids, I need to get out and take some and, might start off with peoples backs (so they don't know lol).
Like the comments about looking the same (they all have large left ears as well).

This is sooo true!
I really like how you captured the styles without showing any faces. Does that one have a cigarette in his hand and what sorta pouch is it that he is wearing? Camera? |

| The music of a picture, painting, sketch or photo, is something I sense quickly, and a tool I often overlook when composing. You remind me to think more of this aspect. Also the synchronized view is often put aside in favour of the blue, off-beat note. I like the synchronized lads here and that their faces are turned away. |

| Good conversion - the sunlight on the shoulders really helps to seperate the lads from the background. I love the poses, especially the hand. |

| The composition really works for me. I like the slight tilt and the crop.. bet they'd be horrified that they look the same from behind.. |

| I was just about to write almost exactly what Peter said already. I was noticing this with teenagers/young adults the other day, how they all try to be so individual yet still wish to "fit in" - this shot says a lot of that! |
