Tina, I have to say I like the new crop better (maybe because I was one of
those suggesting the angled crop!) I confess that I prefer the colour
version, at least that of the lounge and curtain.
I do find the patches of bright light on the left hand edge distracting
though. 
Just my humble amateur opinion. This is a really good learning exercise for
me, looking at many great LUG image posts and making myself consider all of
the elements and try to apply the same thought to my own.

Cheers
Hoppy

PESO:

I tried your suggestions and like the results much better than the original:

But, to my surprise (I thought the photo needed the colors in the 
dark house), I really like this one best:

Opinions still welcome if you're not tired of this topic!

Tina, while they are all impressive, easily my favourites are the little
girl bathing with the bucket and the solo portrait.

Marvellous and striking. Also, I notice that you didn't have to upset her or
take away her lollypop to make great images that tell a story about the
human condition.

Congratulations
Hoppy

PESO:

Another scene from Honduras.  Most houses, even in Tegucigalpa, do 
not have running water so there is a need for community laundry sites 
like this one under a huge ceiba tree.  You'd think it was in the 
middle of nowhere, but it's in the middle of a city of 2,000,000 
people.  The barrios of Tegucigalpa are like a maze of dirt roads 
going straight up and straight down with cardboard and tin shacks 
everywhere.  You could be lost there forever.

There are 5 photos here.

Comments welcome.  I know you're probably getting tired of photos of 
Hondurans.  I'll be gone Thursday ;-)
