Well, not everyone got pissed like the crazy silver dude (see my other post).

Here are a few of the other shots I captured. I am new to this urban life stuff but need to start somewhere. My only regret is that I cut off the wheel chair in that one shot. Did I ruin it?

I dig the wheel chair pic and thought it looked good. I didn't notice the wheel til i read your comments.

on the first one, i know he has a beard but is there something else on or in front of his face?

I like the wheel getting cut off. It could use a little contrast overall though. The first one is great. Would like to see the contrast of that one on the wheel chair shot.

Thanks folks. Yes it was smoke - he just lit a butt. I took another and got him sitting there smoking it...only to cut off the "N" in newspaper. As I said, still working on the details of composition! Ill play with the wheel chair shot a bit more for the contrast issue.

TIME magazine cuts off letters all the time. Take another look. Your eye will understand that EWSPAPER is really NEWSPAPER. Maybe it's okay that you cut it off...
