Good crop and composition, I must say I prefer the workshop since it takes care of the overexposed top part and brings out more of the textural details in the water.

Well seen!

Great B&W. The overexposed background is so appropriate here, brings out the main subject like its out of the real world, suspended in time. Excellent POV. I enjoyed your note too. Its hard not to feel some discomfort or guilt when taking shots of people like him, but sometimes such pictures make a positive impact on the rest of the world, or so I like to think. TFS

Best regards

This is very well composed. The photo completely tells the story of his "cold and wet predicament." The emotion on the boy's face is perfectly captured, almost like asking what this man is doing taking my picture. A perfect moment photo subject...but it's just a normal "working" day for him.

It's still amazing how they could hold their balance on such a narrow edge. Years of practice? Because of necessity? If nothing is done about their plight, then maybe he'll be in that same position in the years to come.

Thank you for reminding me of how blessed a lot of us still are. Thank you for reminding me that it's time to give back.

A beautiful minimalstic composition from you Allan. Its a nice shot with those staring eyes and a beautiful perspective. You've done well to get it in b/w. A superb POV and great effort.

Well composed and well exposed. It sets a great mood. Have you thought about sepia toning it?

Hello Allan,

That is a great work, his good one like here is wonderful, the excellent and sharp composition perfect!
I like the movement of the waters with the rain falling in her, small waves of excellent texture.
Congratulations my friend!
