I don't think it needs a crop - one is immediately drawn to the kid's face and the crowd of people and the ominous man and the smiling woman in the background bracketing the kid perfectly capture that feeling of each person in his own little world. The hand-holding couple in the foreground also work beautifully thematically as well as for the composition.

To me, the boy is just young enough to not yet be eying the beautiful young woman he is passing, while the much older man looks at her with realization that she is unavailable to him. The man at her side is at the middle place in that life cycle.USelainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15551995221350532168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23860865.post-76762525210355348612008-07-31T11:38:00.000-07:002008-07-31T11:38:00.000-07:00Well caught!
