I really like the Tom! This is a nice character study and visually interesting with the great contrasts with the colorful fruit against the mostly b&w graffiti, but this really seems dark to me and could benefit by a bit more PP. Brighten up the whole image, maybe dodge his face a bit, and sharpen a little too. I tried it and thought it looked good....at least it did to me! :-D CJ
Thanks all. Graffiti has been well controlled by the anti-graffiti squad in NYC so the best is the mobile kind such as this truck providing such a wonderful but temporary background. -tv

The graffiti makes a great foil for the brightly coloured fruit. Another goodun Tommy.
I wonder if he knew he put his fruit stand in front of that grafitti ...because if I had a fruit stand, that's where I would put it. Definitely. Penny Street
