My attempted foray into Russ, Stamper and Seamus's territory.
The guys in the pub at this hour caught my attention, the peanut seller added another dimension.

I'd say it's a cracker of a shot, but I am afraid Stamper would find it racially charged ;) (the term, not the shot itself)

I agree it is a cracker of a shot. As to the rest of the comment......then no comment. :(

It's a fine shot, William. Slobodan, knock off the "jokes."

Sorry, Russ, ain't gonna happen. You can always report me and have me banned, of course.

Ain't gonna happen, my friend. I'd never try to keep you from making an . . . of yourself. Problem is, I hold you in high regard with respect to your technical abilities. You've helped me with post-processing on more than one occasion. I'd hate to see you lose respect over unimportant crap like bad jokes.

Indeed. The girl's stoic and resigned expression is worth a picture in itself, but the pub guys create a stark (social) contrast to it. Having to work at such a young age, juxtaposed to seemingly easy-going guys, a connection that might be extrapolated to one of them actually spending the money his own kid earned (a situation not unheard of in many other parts of the world).
I shall add that this is one of the best street shots (however you define it) I've seen on this site for a while.

I agree that it is outstanding. And there have been lots of excellent Street photos here recently.

Regardless of genre, I find it to be an interesting and fine photograph.
