Soap box orator proposing the abolilition of country boundaries and vested interests to form a "One World" culture. I found the way he appealed to his audience using his hands interesting and waited for the moment.

great image so expressive. the b/w works really well. There is a wierd blotchyness in the top right which you could maybe blur out but reall this is a well captured shot with good composition

DOF spot on. The Clarity of his face is amazing I just love his expressive gesture and the strong contrast love it

This image is strong. The size of the man, the expression on his face and most of all, i think, his hands forward trying to make a point. The fact that your image is in Black & White is also a strong point.I do not normally like frames but here it isolates this man.

I really like this. I have been looking through some of the images for this project and this one is defiantly one that stands out. Well done.

Excellent shot, perhaps if there had been some others watching/listening the context would be more apparanet but the hands are very powerful at bringing the audience into the frame

Great image and I agree with someone else that he could be speaking or indeed singing. I think the fact we don't see anyone else there adds to the intrigue and makes me wonder what he is doing. I like the crop and the use of black and white. An overeall great exposure, Karen.

Amazing photograph. The focus is spot on and I really love the lighting youve got. I think it captures the spirit of the man ! It would look nicer without the border but I appreciate its to help copyright it etc :)I love the picture.

Great shot. I love the expression as captured. You can just feel him putting everything into his speech. The B&W treatment suits this shot extremely well.
