Wow, great shots!!!
That first one is classical, the only minus are the feet coming from the man's back. Otherwise it's magnificent, with a classical street shot feel!!
The other two are great too. Very well done!

Very nice shots Iris. Rense is correct, #1 is the best
I can't help but find the advertisement in #2 very distracting though.

That is funny, because I think it ad(d)s to the picture....

Thanks for looking and commenting.
I tried both; one with and one without the add!
In the end I thought the advertisement emphasized the man on the phone.

The first is amazing, except for a few things already noted. You seem to be really good at telling a story, keep it up!

To be honest, I was unsure whether it added to the picture for me or if it distracted! Still a nice shot either way you look at it.

Iris, you're such a versatile photographer! From insects to landscapes to street scenes. Super job. I like the first photo best but #2 is close. As mentioned, separating those extra body parts from the man on the telephone would be an improvement, but it works well nonetheless.

Perfect, Iris - I particularly like the second one, although the guy reminds me of my cardiologist.
