Just come back from lunch. We're enjoying some wonderful weather & I've got a couple of shots I think might do for the challenge & would love some C&C suggestions (if they're needed lol).

I see this guy every morning. He cleans the small green, keeps the leaves down & keeps the children's play area clean & tidy. He's into motorbikes & we chat about that. He's retired & used to work as an engineer or mechanic i think. Hi name is Dave.

    very nice idea for the challenge. I like #2 - don't know if it is my monitor (my work monitor is dark) but the left side of his face is very dark, may need to lighten that up, only other comment is to remove the little object by his right hand.

    I moved him under the trees as the sun was so bright & he was frowning.

    Here's a lightened & cropped version:
