This is a photo that I took about a week ago and I just finished processing. I really like it but I'm not sure about the white spot at left corner in the sky.It's hot but the histogram looks fine. I tried several possibilities. I also tried to blend another shot with a bit more details in the sky but somehow this looked weird. So i'm not quiet sure. I took about 40 to 50 shots but this is the best one regarding the placement of the people passing by. I am also thinking to try a black & white vesion. What do you think?
Thanks for any feedbacks and suggestions.

Roland,

The white spot in the sky does not bother me as it is balanced in the reflection from the pavement in the lower right. I do like the blurred motion of the foreground people.........................................................Jim

I like the sense of motion Bill. I think B&W might work well here.

Great sense of motion, and the girl with the red coat works very well.. A plant right?

Well composed frame and an interesting scene, the sky doesn't bother much.
I agree with Eva, a good candidate for B&W conversion.
Well done

Sometimes this technique can rescue an area like that.
