Faces of Chicago 7

All critiques appreciated.

I like the contrast between the "perfect people" in the billboard and the "real people" they seem to be smugly looking at- with a stone wall separating them.

Very good admosphere..! Like the "contact" between boy and wall guy.. Congrads!

The moment is ok, the distance of the man and boy is too big. You hardly can see their expressions. I like the idea though.

Thank you all so much! The incommensurate sizes is a problem with this picture, as Karina very objectively points out; partly it is intended, but this is too great a distance I agree, for the child's expression to be even properly visible.

 

Best regards.

Great photo, Debasish!Best regards

I see Karina's point, but I also think that if the two real people were closer (e.g. in front of, or almost, of the photograph), composition would be poorer, and the shot would be more static. Moreover, I am not sure that seeing clearer the child expression would really matter much (while it is significant that the child is looking upwards, as if in the direction of the big faces in the shop window, and the man is smiling). Just my thought.

I'll take your first point as is.

Regarding the second point, ``... it is significant that the child is looking upwards, as if in the direction of the big faces in the shop window, ...'' I think Karina made precisely this point that we're not sure where the child is looking; well he actually is looking at the poster, which I can see in the larger original. I'll post a different picture involving this poster later.

I'll wait for the update.

excellent street scene!!!
