Took this shot in our town's Antique District. It was his idea to have his case open at his feet. :) I had a blast! It was a great reminder of why I do what I do. C&C Welcomed.

    Composition looks nice but I'd really like to see them larger so I can look at detail easier and better see his face, can you repost larger images please? :)

    I also like the colors here but it's tough to see any detail at the sample size....

    Really like the colors in the BG in #1. I do like the touch of color the fire hydrant provides but I think it all needs to be in the frame or none of it in the frame.

    Looks like fun.
    The little things do matter in these shots.
    Case should not be blocking his feet fire hydrant needs to be fully in or fully out. Last one looks tilted and his hands are clipped in half.
    Overall these are decent shots...just need some fine tuning. See the entire frame when you are setting up the shot.

    On #1 I would love to see the case moved over about half a foot, and the whole frame as well, that's one snazzy fire hydrant and I think it would add a neat element to the photo :-) #2 I like a lot, but #3 he just looks angry.... :-/

    I'd like to see the texture of the wall blended into the name in #1. The bricks in the sun make it evident that the name was added in post and not painted on the wall directly.

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I will definitely keep these things in mind.

    All of the fire hydrants in our area are painted these colors. I have no idea why, but I like it. :)

    Very cool stuff
    Add a different camera angle for a more interesting shot. Get down low or up high.

    Good images. Just a couple of things that I saw my eye go directly to.

    In the first image...clone out that fire hydrant
    second image...clone out the electric meters
    third image...the horizonal line is not straight. Easy fix in photoshop through lens correction.

    Other than that...I love the colors and the composition.
