Excellent newspaper type shot. Looks like you were reporting on an event, & I could see this selling to the papers.

My only critique would be that it lacks sharpness. The 3 faces seem to have left your AF undecided as to which is the main subject, & it hasn't really picked any. A touch more DoF may have solved the problem. You can add some sharpening in PS, but as I found out [link], you can only correct so much focus.

Good shot though, works really well in B&W. Adds to the "newspaper reporter" feel. For no good reason, it seems to have a 70's/80's feel to it. It looks like you have a shot of the miner's strike, or some such event.

Superb shot, the policeman is loosing it big time. If you were fiddling around trying to get the photograph technically correct you would have lost the shot and moment! What's more important ?

the nervousness of the demonstrator is clear, so is the heightened intensity of he officer... hard to capture such raw emotions at close quarters in such circumstances; a very effective photo journalism image

A good street shot, - lots of tension well captured.

I would suggest you sharpen after you re size for EPZ as its likely suffered some compression detail loss on its way to EPZ.

Loaded a quick mod, sharpened, with a tad more contrast.
