A nice capture of daily life Ricardo! The picture contains a large range of colors. I like the contrast between the 2 girl, one girl is dressed with bright colors and the other girl with just one monochromatic color. The green grass also offers a contrast with the girls. Well done!

An interesting daily life shot, Ricardo. I like how you have framed it with the violinist's bow in the top right corner. The concentration in their faces is also well captured.

Good shot Ricardo of these two apperently very, very concentrated girls in full swing, supporting their studies I guess. Fine detail from the 'daily life'

Your POV is very good on this one. The sitting girl gets to be the central element of the composition and the other instead of compeeting with her complements. Besides the placement in the composition the colors help this to happen.

Just three sugestion to make a stronger image.
1 - selecting all except the girl, desaturate a bit the colors. Not too much. Just a bit not to become too evident and to highlight them against the background.

2 - selecting above the grass and apply a soft blur for a shallower DOF.

3 - the third option maybe doing all the above! :-)

Well composed scene so nature .. The diagonal of the violine-archets perfectly fit with the angle of view of the picture

Very lively shot of the musicians, Ricardo. I like how they are so absorbed and focused on their playing. Beautiful colors and even though there is a lot to see in the background, it does not distract at all as the two girls are the clear center of attention in your composition. Very nice.

Very nice girls and very good picture too. You framed them very well... I am also impressed by their such beautiful instruments. I cannot imagine that for street musicians in Europe! Thanks for sharing!

Wow - what a compostion and not to mention the motifs - you got this capture just the best way - the people in front dosen't relay belong in the show - but they can't destroy the very fine image - I like the concentrated look at there faces - great work Indeed Ricardo.

Good daily life shot of these buskers. I like the sharpness & correct foreground exposure (the blown out background suits here).

A nice capture from daily life. Your picture has a good balance, colours and its very sharp (as if they posed for you, but I assume they just kept on playing). The open case with the note is a must; it really adds to the picture. I also like the looks on the girls' faces: they are so concentrated on their 'work'. Thanks for sharing.

I like this "one" much more then windmills! ;-)
Very good and clean composition of daily life Ricardo. Nice colours and good sharpness. Yes, a backlight works a bit "contra", but it is still a wonderful photo. I love this "one".
Chau, DonQ.

This picture has so much suptle information. From the clothes of the chello player to the stool she is sitting on. A lovely feeling where the notes from the instruments can be heard coming out if the image.

Hie Ricardo. Thought I stop by and learn something from your country today. This is a lovely scene and really down to earth. Even with music, life must go one yes. And both musicians, are so focused, concentrating on their pieces and notes.

Hola Ricardo,
Agradable instantaneo de la Baires cotidiana. Y muy buena composicion: colores, nitidez y manejo de la iluminacion.
Y el cartelito de las 'gracias totales' le da una simpatia esplendida!
Saludos,
Guido.
