I like the new crop, it works. More focus is on the little kid with less of the distracting on lookers looking to the right, making one think what where they all looking at ;)

I cropped to Lonnits suggestion on the screen & it indeed takes us to the kids level & for me a much stronger shot..................................sort of:-)

Thanks again for the comments. I opted for cropping out the camera guy on the left since he was really distracting. I wanted to keep the top portion of the picture to maintain a sense of location. The picture lost the big city feel with the store front signs cut off.

Excellent! If you're considering cropping, an interesting thing to do would be to crop the heads off the two rear-most gentlemen, just below the eyes of the gentleman facing us in the pink and black sweatsuit. I think it might add to the child's lostness - he's so small he can't even reach a glance to thier heads, can't make eye contact with anyone. YK? BTW, I also might clip out the photog, but I'm not sure if he adds to the image or detracts from it. Good capture. ~ Lonnit

Thanks for the comments, I agree the top of the photo is distracting. I think I will crop it off. I think people were watching the Glockenspiel, the picture was taken in the Marienplatz

Absolutely adorable. My only suggestion (*) would be to crop out the top, the top left tree is distracting. I scrolled up/down the picture to just above peoples head and find it much more effecticve.

I too like this photo very much. A little kid lost in a sea of adults. Especially captures the innocence of the child with his/her toy following behind.

Poor kid looks lost. Only seems to be one lady looking at him on the right. Nice shot!

Agree with Rod:-)
Wonder what everybody else is looking at and the photographer on the left taking for picture:-)

Love it!

This is a terrific shot mate, but you don't have to tell us what you clone out as it can spoil the affect. Great work.
