Not a bad comparison at all. The amusing thing was I was waiting for a break in the foot traffic hoping to isolate the boy. But as soon as camera left was free of people, camera right would get busy (& visa versa). In hindsight I should have gone for a longer shutter speed & ghosted the passers-by. Anywho, I still like the shot :-) Thanks for looking & commenting.
