    My first time sticking head above parapet for a C&C: All Shots are Ilford HP5+ 400 ISO film taken with 50mm f/1.4D Nikon Prime.

    There is a link back on my Flickr to view all these on black, if you really want to be pedantic as white backgrounds drains tone from B&W shots IMHO..

    In my humble opinon, these's are really great, I think you captured the feeling of a protest. For me #2 is a winner it's a powerfull image you captured, as with #3. #4 I thought it looked a wee bit lost but I think its just cause there are no protest signs behind them but as a story board it fits really well. #1 the look on the kids face is great "arrgh protest !"

    Again humble opinon but I like them alot.

    Great work Simplicius.

    You know what I think about No:4, it's an excellent photo.

    Really good photojornalism shots there.

    1 the child is really good, just a pity dad has his eyes closed.

    2 is the one that works best for me, you can almost hear that hailer.

    3 I feel would be stronger if you crop out the sky just above the placards.

    4 has a lovely mood about it, very serious and intent.

    @ Caban Sail: Re: No. 3 and the suggestion about the sky, you were spot on, see below , it strengthens the composition a lot.

    I am now seeing the benefit of C&C or joining your local camera club and getting reviewed. Simply put, no matter how much you try to be objective there is always things you miss and 3rd party input really does help you learn how to improve.
