A good sort of grainy street scene shot. You have captured street musicians doing their thing. What is also good about this scene is the mood that you have given it. Sort of surreal and moving through process.
What would have been more appealing to voters, is to move over to the middle and shoot from there. This would have given the viewer an open view of the performers. Angle shots of people misses the eyeballs. You want to take in the eyes and facial expressions.
Sometimes in street photography you tend not to want to get in the way of the performers or the people watching. Remember, a photo takes a few seconds to shoot and then you can move away. Another factor about street photograpy, is that you almost have to walk around with your camera ready at any time. It always appears that the best shot always seemed to get away from us, because we were not ready.
Good capture again, I like the mood and the flow. It shows the street elements well. Don't be afraid to step in front and shoot away. The best they can say is no. Good luck in your future challenges. |

| very busy -- it took me quite awhile to see that the second guy is drumming. Just singling him out would have been better |

| Sort of soft and cluttered. I think the camera was hunting for a focal point in the low light. If you have the ability to manual focus you might want to try it in low light conditions. |

| I love street busker shots, but you're too far away to get a good look at them. I would gone to the right & in a bit & zoomed on the drummer. |
