Paul, the cut-off face of the walking guy on the left ruins the shot for
me. The girl on the right seems to look at him, the girl in the middle
is looking straight ahead and the guy whose face you did not include in
the frame seems to look the other way. I think it is important that all
three faces are in. Otherwise - you and your gear (seeing DA* 60-250 :-)
) did a good job.
As for rules of sixths - I often find recently that I want to compose my
frames so that the object of main interest is towards the edges and
small... Don't know why really, but this is how it is :-).
Hope you don't mind honest brutality of my comment, as I mean no
offense, obviously.

This guy, who probably lives in Detroit and commutes to a job in the
suburbs, was sitting on a door stoop in downtown Birmingham, Michigan
waiting patiently for one of the infrequent buses to take him home to
the city. Reverse commuting and lousy public transportation are just
two signs of a broken city. (A third is when the mayor goes to
jail.)
