Faces

The expression on the kid's face makes me look at him as one of the dolls that decorate the car's hood.

The composition is excellent, the faces are all expressive, even of the dolls and I like the play of the orange.
 
The kid is perfect! Usually I'd say that people shots are better in B&W but this definitely benefits from colour. Reminds me of a Martin Parr shot you can see in his book of shots of working class people in New Brighton, Merseyside, England.
 
pentaxuser,
I'm not familiar with the work of Martin Parr. I'll have to check it out. I certainly agree people shoots are better in B&W, but I always shoot color film (reala) when shooting street festivals. During those events, I get to see colors that normally would not be seen on the streets and so I make it a point to record such colors. Thanks for your comments!
