Part of me wants to say that the background spectators looking in the opposite direction take something away from this. Another part of me finds humor in it. I like it anyway.

nice enough shot, but doesn't really grab my interest. maybe a different perspective might have made a difference. as is, this looks like something almost anyone with a decent camera could have taken...
