About the Image(s)
I took this image in New Orleans' French Quarter two years ago. I think think that the young man watching me makes this image.
Canon 6D, Tamron 28-300 lens at 28mm. ISO 800, f 7.1 at 1/800 second. I edited the image in Photoshop cropping and cloning to remove what I thought were the most distracting elements. I tried not to affect the overall fell of the image.

Yep, that kid has you nailed. He does make the picture. /Nice work with the cropping which keeps you interest focused on the three. This is full of interest. Posted: 04/02/2021 17:02:56

That child makes this image. You really have two images here and both individually are excellent examples of the oblivion of our surroundings - the girls who are in their own world and have no idea what's going on around them and the two boys so intent on what they're looking at in the one boy's hand they don't even realize that the younger one is rapt onto something they couldn't care less about. Wonderfully executed. Posted: 04/04/2021 11:32:34

Great street scene in this photo. I also see the title as matching well with the image. The story is also interesting. Posted: 04/06/2021 08:34:10
