Rules are meant to be broken. Some shots work better without following the rule of thirds. However, saying that the subjects are centered in the photo is wrong. They are clearly in the upper part as the bottom third is all foreground.

Instant classic! I like the fact that you have lowered your camera angle a little bit to aim right at the target! ;)

Isn't that something to behold... that nice gentleman helping that young woman by adjusting her wardrobe.

Great capture... the best of luck in the challenge.

I hope you were using your zoom cos if they heard your camera click i suspect you might have to start running :)
Great lines leading to the centre composition.
Top 3 for sure.

LOL - I was about to say, "it's too bad we can't see their faces."
Un, then I saw ... oh, never mind. Good find. This is a keeper.

Truly inspired -- absolutely wonderful -- I do think this one should have blue.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This one made me smile. Great capture, even if it is posed.

Literal and figurative both emphasized. I love the texture and light reflection of the brick road and the folds within the clothes.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Awesome. Great shot, editing, and the subject matter is fun as well.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

LOL! Every time I look at this, John, it cracks me up. Marvelous entry.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Lots of nice texture which is complimented by the b&w. This 'touch' looks spontaneous- for some reason, I hope it was!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
