Street portrait

Very nice. The care/compassion of a man doing it tough shines through. The colours help. Drab greens but with warm touches on both faces and the hands. The eye contact challenges our personal response.

Very nice except the contrast in detail/sharpness in the man's face and the cat's head. The cat is an integral element in the composition (in my opinion), so the blur of the cat's head detracts from the "success" of the photo. Aside from that, I really like it! The expression on the man's face along with the muted, but "realistic", colors, as well as the softly blurred background are all on point.

It may be sacrilege to say, but if there's some kind of AI software that can do for the blur of the cat's head what Photo AI can do for the blur of people's faces, I think that would be good to try. Also, the noise in the rectangle under the brim of the cap to the ears and halfway up the nose is a bit distracting, too -- it's not the "artistic" kind of noise, but the distracting type of noise, if that makes any sense.

Thanks for detailed feedback. I was not happy with softness of the face the gentleman primarily and the cat's head a little bit. I improved the masking, de-noised whole phot and sharpen the face and the cat's head. I think it looks a bit better.
