Not exactly...I think there's something peaceful about this picture. Though it's not the best job in the world I'm sure it puts food on his family's table. He looked like he enjoyed doing it as well. It must be great to be in a huge urban park all day.

Lovely colour and light. I agree the photo is peaceful. The man is an enigma. What is he doing? Even on 'large' I can't work it out.

@Helen: The man in the photo is sweeping up the leaves that have fallen on the path. He's collected a whole bunch of them and are just putting them in a bag or something.

I love this one Kelly! The composition is great - my eyes are drawn on past the man, through the torii and the temple beyond. The softness of the processing and the colours are just dreamy. An excellent shot mate.

What really strikes me about this one is the framing - the arch, the trees, the top of the path - they all enclose him so well.

Fantastic composition and atmosphere. I like that you've thought about what this picture means, so it's not just another pretty shot.

Nice shot. I don't care for the yellow cast. I think it'd pop more without the color cast.
