Hi Steve,

My first look was... "the guy in the foreground is out of focus, too bad!"
Then I couldn't just drop it away as the "eyes of all three men were so
strong looking back at me," it completely changed my initial re-action to,
"Good one Steve."

The strong point of this shot are the eyes and direct communication with the
viewer, certainly compared to the dozens of grab street things we see posted
here. Which so often are nothing more than a grab shot and because it's
taken with a Leica that supposedly makes it a good street picture. When in
reality it isn't nor does it have any communication factor as your picture
does here.

well done!
ted
