You are right, potographers love street musicians- I like very much the first one and the way you stress the muscian with PP and frame.

Yep, I'm a sucker for street musicians too, great shots.

Yeah! I like them too! I've got one of a Concertina player in Jackson square in New Orleans.

Both great.
Love the mood in #2!
Well done.

I like the first one!

Thanks.

Great shots. The first image strikes me as symbolic- a man with a smile and a violin, that appears to be enjoying the sun amid the chaos and trying get people to look and listen to what he feels as he plays. The second is a little more sombre but classic in its composition and character portrayal.

Street musicians and performers are like just waiting there, asking for their pics to be taken.

Great shots! I like the separation in the first one. Just like a street musician, he is in his colorful art while the dull day to day passes by. Nice work!
