Don,

The third photograph of the men sitting in the bus/transit shelter is especially good 'street' photography.

It has an unusual element as they just are not walking along, but are engaging in a public area by using it. Interesting leading lines, color accents and and internal framing add to the technically attractive elements of this photo.

The second photo has strong and complimentary verticals but I feel it would be better without the dark border and it could have been framed or cropped differently to be more effective. Almost too much building on the left and the dark triangular area distract from the impact of the worker. If the triangular zone did not extend across the entire lower portion of the photo it might work better and then provide an asymmetrical impact too!

Thanks guys

Number two is awesome. I don't see how you do it. You get some interesting angles from that bus. Manual focus?
