Such a humorous and meaningful picture. Colourful capture at the right moment. Person at right looks like is the key to this photo. Great work,
Regards,

A story in a single photo--two people reckoning they can work out where they are from the map, two more have given up and asked a local, and that local has given up (oh, so expressively) on trying to understand what they want. And you've caught them all at just the right moment. The background is busy, but the expressions of the people involved help us ignore that.

Great compostion. Colors, exposure and focus good. But this shot goes further. Much like a frozen frame from a movie. Another Divtio here?. Enjoyed your work. Mike.

Thank you very much indeed, Mike! I am happy if I've basked this winter day (for northern hemisphere)in a sunflower shaded day...

I give this shot 3TU as a tourist photo. If you've ever been to a foreign country, this is scene many of us can appreciate. The expressions are perfect, and I like the way you've cropped the photo to include all required elements, but no more. It doesn't hurt that you've included one gentleman with a bold red coat (properly positioned) to add a splash of color. Thanks

This is very cute. The colors work nicely together especially the contrasting white and gray gloves. Maybe lost in translation to the people in the photo but your pic tells the story well. I like that you did not crop ou the blue crossing sign at the top of the picture and the eyes of the person on the far right are so expressive. Good job of capturing a universal moment.
Susan
