Jurors Scores Critiques
Farhad Azizi 7 Beautiful street photo especially the man surrounded with smoke of pecan. His eyes toward the photographer and waving hand to him or her.

High speed shutter to freeze smoke together with open aperture gave total attention on him.
   
Kerri-Jo Stewart 10 Excellent photograph, both technically and for interest. Even the background strengthens and adds to the image.
I want to hear the story!!
   
Wes Bergen 8.5 - Well composed image, and the shallow depth of field concentrate one’s attention on the main subject.
- Converting to B&W was a good choice.

- Backlighting makes the smoke stand out nicely, but there are several distracting highlights in the background.
   
Total Score: 25.5
