Great photo. Those two guys in the sunglasses keep staring at me.

Nice take on the homeless and a different approach to the shot with the three types of subjects. I like the static homeless guy and the slower motion in the background and then the faster motion in the forground. It all makes sence and works well together in the shot. In minimal edit there is nothing we can do with the shadows but it works pretty good anyway. The tones are good and the contrast under different edit rukes needs a boost.
That being said I think it works well and I hope that you do well with it in this challenge.

Wow, this one tells a story! I'm would like to see it in a larger version, as I think it looses a little due to size.

I don't like the composition here, I'm not really sure what the picture is trying to say. Maybe getting closer to the homeless guy and making more of a feature of the composition would improve things in my opinion?

A newspaper would really focus more (fill the frame) with the homeless person.

I kind of like this composition. But the graphical balance of the two contrasting types of life is not optimaly achieved since the homeless on the floor is relatively too small

Nice shot of life... but not really a great one for this challenge. But then... I have only scored once above 5.0 so what do I really know...eh?? (6)

nice shot. not necessarily what i'd consider a front-pager on the A section, but could easily see this as a front-page shot on an inside section.
