That is laugh out loud hilarious. The world just got a whole lot more complex for this young man, even if he doesn't fully realize it yet. Belly dancers, who would've thought such a thing existed?!?
I love that the belly dancer is not wholly shown. A bust, like those of Greek sculptures, or an object rather than a person. The size difference between her and the other figures somehow also conveys this. Very nice composition
This is hilarious! Your crop is perfect. I have mixed feelings about the grain for this particular shot but I know that can't be helped if you're shooting at a high ISO.
This image really tells a story. My eyes are drawn to the bellydancer, and at first my reaction was that this photo is boring and soft. But then I saw the boy on the left, which adds a whole new dimension. Very nicely done.

I've seen a lot of your images over the years, Tina, and that one definitely belongs up there in the top five.
THAT, folks, is a "street photo."

Even though we know what we are seeing in one sense, there are many questions left for the viewer to ponder.
