I usually hate selective color, but even though the B&W came out fairly well, I thought I would try it here.

Thanks for looking. C&C always welcome.

    Very well done - as they say every picture...
    I also do like the last one.
    Thank you,
    Yuri

    I usually agree about selective color but #4 is awesome. I really like it. Well done!

    The first is my favorite. I love the light, the color (including the touch of red), the coposition and the processing.

    The second is reminiscent of Cartier-Bresson. Just wonderful.

    Love the shadows in the third and it makes me smile.

    And, yes, the selective coloring in #4 may not be to everyone's taste but it delights me.

    Inspired and inspirational.

    I really like your street shots! Instead of the chaos that can sometimes happen in street photography, your compositions feel well thought out. I particularly like the Nuns with their shadows following behind them, and the Royal Guard. Good eye!! clap.gif
