A spectacular shot! It might benefit from a bit stronger lighting as some of the men are a bit underexposed, but great composition and capture of expressions.

I might crop down from the top just above the men's heads and some at the bottom, perhaps right below the man's folded arms as it doesn't really add anything to the shot. Nice job!

A lot of action and gazing proud man, perfect subject, a photo that speaks for itself in a good compo and real colors. Fine job !

Wow, lovely shot. A lots of triangle in this composition. Crowded but I don't feel that it is with the composition. I would not crop anything, it is perfect as it is.

Great shot. I like how they all have different face expression and it is very well composed, with a lot of details and those two yellow turbans are just great making a digonal among all that blue and white verticals.

Beau cliché de personnages très évocateur du pays dès le premier coup d'oeil.

Beautiful daily life shot.
I can see why they are all smiling
You are probably the last one to get in (ha ha).
Good colors and amazing possibilities
You can make a lot of different shots here
Like crop only the man and the boy with the yellow tulband
Too bad I have exceeded my upload limit for today maybe tomorrow
(It could use some post processing)

Excellent pic, I hope you've thanked the centered guy for his lifetime effort, he really holds the image on his shoulders. first giving a diagonal backbone to the compo which would have been otherwise a bit too static because of the "layers" and secondly for his fantastic yellow turban that breaks the pastel blue background and echoes his other yellow turban fellow wearer.

Other thing is that he stands out of the usual "looking through your lens, through your eyes and through your soul" indian look.

all in all, congrats for a flawless and striking pic, Keith.
