All he is doing is standing still. The funny thing is that he has a different theme every day. He entertains everyone who see him while one is stuck in traffic. Only In New York.

I would like to see the camera viewpoint alittle more to the right and pointing up just a tad. That way you get a little less foreground and would also pick up the cuople coming towards the camera. That would make a nice conterpiose with the main subject. Incidently, I don't have a problem with photographing people from behind, as long as it produces a visual effect, which your pic does. Your week 3. This is a funny pic! I don't know why, but it makes me laugh. I try to see it's motive but can't work it out. What is the guy trying to do? Doesn't matter. Maybe it is the mystery that appeals to me. Your week 3. I don't think this one works. Too much clutter interfering with the subject. Tilt does not help. I would really like to see what the guy is doing. I think he's reading the paper but not obvious enough. Overall, I enjoyed them.
