I like everything about this, the colours, the light the viewpoint and the expressions, even the details of rust and chipped paint. Superb.

Hi Caleb!

No doubt your composition is good, and the man with his mustard uniform and his colorful turban is eye-catching. But for me, the highlight is the first kid in the middle with his eyes wide open and his expression of fascination. Even only for that, this picture is shining! Excellent, Caleb!

Hello Caleb,
A wonderful point of view, justzv at the height of the sitting man, combined with a great composition and an interestign view of teh shop in rusty colours all contribute to make this an outstanding photo.
Regards,
Paul

hi Caleb,
a great group portrait, well done inside their shop, in uneasy light confitions.
anyway, could catch the contrast between the colours of the clothes and the fine blue walls.

Hi Caleb,

It really surprises me to watch Indian photos in these attractive colors. For instance, the pink color of the man's scarf is nearly impossible for a man to carry on in my country. I loved the background children and man's placement and also the atmosphere. It is very natural. Cheers

Hi Caleb!
So great to see you are still submitting such quality stuff as usual. This one seems to grip me. Wonderful expressions. I like (what I am guessing is) the subtle use of the flash.......something that I am experimenting with in some lower light situations such as this. Great work as always. Good to be back on here, if at least only part time, after too long a break. Kind regards,
Steve
