My sad moment for the day...why do people have to be like that.

A bit too overexposed but I see what you're going for

Great photo, perhaps a little bit over-contrasty for a newspaper, but the framing is nice. I'm not sure that I like your headline though. It doesn't really sound like a headline.

I don't like your headline (as a headline), but I like your photo a lot. I like that you cut off the tops of the bodies of the passers-by, keeping them even more anonymous and generic. The b&W is nice and gritty and the part that's blown out is fine. Good contrast. I'm thinking the focus is just a bit soft. 7

I was grabbed by this image at first. After thinking for a while I think "..heard THEM say" doesn't do the picture justice. There's one guy walking away and there are 2 people facing the main subject. I think the timing for the image was a bit off. If you had waited till there were a bunch of people walking away, I think it would have made a much bigger impact. I think you have taken the theme well and have worked on a brilliant idea. Good luck.

Very evocative image. The grain and slight unsharpness are very fitting. For a newspaper item the title doesn't seem appropriate though. Also, I would have cropped out the two pedestrians to the right, leaving only the guy seen from the back walking away from the beggar. 7

I always like black and white. This one really nice.

Too little resolution and too much grain. Also, the highly exposed nature of this picture does not really suit the subject, which is rather dark. I do like the relationship between the man in the sandals who has just passed and the man begging, but I think the other elements of the image conflict with the story being told there.

Not much detail in the white and black areas.

Interesting shot. It could use a better focus. The title is not appropriate for a newspaper headline.

Great photo lousy headline it speaks volumes socially yet the headline you chose is not a headline but a commentary. Scored you a 7 where a well written"headline "would have scored you an 8 for sure.

Your choice of title while a poignaint social commentary leaves me wondering why you chose it for this challenge?

Good Luck in the challenge
