Without your description, I would not know the image was captured during an intermission.
My attention goes to the person look at her tablet and her the hat and stuffed animal attached to her waist. Posted: 11/03/2024 05:21:05

That is what I too saw. Karen Kohn Posted: 11/07/2024 16:38:47
Karen, what is it about this group of people that drew your attention? What emotional response do you want the viewer to have? Are you learning to evaluate what to look for in a storytelling composition or are you just pointing your camera at some people? You also do not give any information about your camera settings, but the image is not sharp, particularly on the faces, which generally are the most important part of the subject.

Actually I saw one on her phone or tablet, the one with her back to me probably trying to talk to the guy facing me, but he is looking away. All in all, not much of an interaction. I thought it was ironic that they were together. Karen Kohn Posted: 11/07/2024 16:42:09
Karen, here again I have to repeat myself as in many of your images before. You are just creating snapshots. I sense that you see a group of two persons or more doing whatever they are doing and you send an image to the group. Judith and Ardeth have said it already. Go and visit other groups and check their images and read the comments. It is a good source of information and will help you understand for once and for all what is Photojournalism with Human Interest. Posted: 11/07/2024 09:14:31
Thank you for your suggestion. Karen Kohn Posted: 11/07/2024 16:42:55

Hi Karen, I see a street photo of three girls with no attributes that add interest over any other random picture of three street girls. This is a Photojournalism discussion where I like to emphasize the journalism aspect. Where would you imagine that this image would be published? Karl Posted: 11/08/2024 12:38:07
