Very effective environmental framing.

Makes me feel sad. Dismal place. Busker with no audience and no visible prospect of one. You've conveyed the emotion of this very well.

OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy). I'll be picking one of these images for the Mu (most underrated) award:

Positives: A very well composed street shot - there are a few elements I really like - his red hood (I really like the saturation on that), the blue 'A' frame and the overhanging frame' which means I like pretty much everything! You somehow get the impression that he is playing to just himself here and it makes me wonder why he favours this spot.

Critical stuff: It won't appeal to everybody - "there is no wow here, nothing to see, move along..." Whoever says that would be wrong, perhaps there isn't a lot of 'wow' but there is certainly plenty to see.

Overall: A good street photo with some interesting elements.

Great subject, would have preferred a less head on shot though...might have been better in profile..
