Une photo de vie quotidienne pleine de détails, Anca. J'aime bien ce petit groupe qui placote et la femme qui marche avec résolution à l'avant. J'aurais peut-être aimé mieux si tu as pu éviter la poteau avec les fils électriques pour ne garder que l'église et le chemin avec les gens; tu aurais probablement pu le faire si tu avais bougé un tantinet vers la gauche. Mais il y a une histoire dans cette photo et cela me plaît bien. Bravo!

This photo needs crop and b&w conversion.

the framing look fine to me here anca :)
the lead lines from the foot path is good

what you need here is a slightly different POV...what i see as most interesting here is not the group chatting but rather the lady thats walking away...:)
for me a street composition like this, i prefer to isolate and keep my focus on the odd one out :) in this case its the lady thats walking towards the camera :)

one more thing that i do when shooting street is that i usually squat down...it lets you see a slightly different view :) try it, i think it'll help

i also tried a workshop for b/w and crop :)
