Beautiful photo. I love the clutter, the vitality of the image. I have a few comments: I wish the point of focus were higher, focused on the people (or at least the first guy) rather than the box. I can almost smell the smoke. Had it been better focused, I probably would be able to not only smell the smoke, but hear what he is listening to. I also find it slightly overexposed. Finally, I am curious either to see more of the top, or less. It gives a feeling of being chopped off abruptly, perhaps because you wanted to include all the people but not necessarily the clutter. I kind of like the clutter and wouldn't mind seeing more in this photo because the flow is great: swerving up, to the left, and back.
I really enjoy this type of photo. Thanks for posting.
