- Comment - Interesting technique to have the subject in color and the rest of the photo in black & white. Would you like to say more about that? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:23, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks for your question, people are used to ignoring the homeless, people go around them without looking or with a look accustomed to poverty that becomes transparent. With this effect of selective black and white, I seek to highlight what is ignored by the majority, but that is always there even though we want to look elsewhere. --Wilfredor (talk) 19:40, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- That's how I perceived this, too. I find this documentary photo moving, so I Support. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:46, 26 January 2020 (UTC)

- Support Good idea, your reasoning for selective B&W makes lots of artistic sense. Cmao20 (talk) 22:59, 26 January 2020 (UTC)
- Support Very nice! The tight crop at the top of the bus is a bit unfortunate, but doesn't spoil the overall picture. --Domob (talk) 05:25, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

- Support --Basotxerri (talk) 07:43, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
- Neutral I'm not so sure about this. A good effort but aside from the selective color, the composition is not that strong. Even documentary photos need good compo to be excellent. --Cart (talk) 11:51, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
- Weak support Although I agree with Cart about the composition. Daniel Case (talk) 04:52, 28 January 2020 (UTC)
