 Children in the poorer quarters of Amman, wanted to show satelite dishes on top of Amman roofs but these kids were willing to have their pics taken and I thought their small tricycle showed how children can make a cheap, discarded tricycle become a valued toy.

a contrast between rough environment and childrens' play is what makes it here...

THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME BLUR ON THE EDGES OF SOME OF THE SUBJECTS, COULD HAVE BEEN A LITTLE MORE CRISP.

There's a profound otherworldy quality to this photo. The lighting is incredibly crisp. The expressions are very aware and adult-like. There is an interesting conversation taking place just with glances and turned heads. Very nice

I find the contrast on this photo with those shadows just too harsh.

The Affluence Challenge description says, "The opposite of the poverty challenge. Knock us out with your representation of MATERIAL WEALTH." This is a cut and paste message that I will comment on all submissions that do not seem to suit the topic of the challenge. Take note I understand this maybe just my personal opinion, and as such I only deducted 1 point from my original vote.

Interesting choice of subject(s) for the challenge. The long shadows are a little distracting as they darken main subjects. Also, could be better focused.

Good image and I but he feels like a millionair with that tricycle.

To the disinterested observer, there doesn't seem to be a direct link to the challenge theme.
