Good eye, Helen, to have seen this. I like the sharp focus on the guard, and the softer focus - but still identifiable - on the background. My favorite of your many "lines" is the sharp crease in the trousers :-) Bev

Helen, all what I liked from the exhibition gallery image has been improved on this one. I like the perspective and the symmetry. A perfect approach to the challenge subject with humans. JesusV.

Nice shot - I love their serious expressions, and the view of the background!

Bodies, posture, weapons, arms, hands, pleats, shadows, architecture...llines galore all in symmetry. Beautifully done, Helen. -Michael

You do capture some neat photos in turkey, I like the symmetry of this one. Hassan
