Basic Edit - Curve for contrast and unsharp mask.

Out trying to grab some 'street photography" saw this guy. Thought that his expression, his clothes and his shopping, fit in with the deadly sins. Like how his is oblivious to the guy in the background.

Best of the lot IMHO. Well imagined and captured. So many stories to think of, which is the best way I know of, to assess the success of an image.

Hand over the bag or the cigarette gets it!! I love this one! It may be a bit more effective had you thrown the background out of focus a bit more, but everything else is working! Fun photo!

I guess he needs that man bag to haul around all his stuff.

Well done you have captured Pride and Greed perfectly in this shot, the fact that the man in the background looks so humble as he searches his pocket only adds more emphasis to the deadly sins portrayed
