Hi Bob, my first try at commenting on Jeber.
Surreal colour for the sweater. Looks like a ladys sweater.
For me the two guys are competing for attention, taking away the focus on the one in the pink sweater.
How do you like a simpler version like this one?

Thanks Ben.  I like your version as it hones in on the main player.  It is, most likely, a woman's sweater -something that made its way to this neighborhood via a charity donation.  But here you've got a guy wearing it as there aren't the same social norms.

I also like the uncropped version because it has more to look at.  I like the stove, looks like it was made using a steel drum as a form.  And I really like the posse of the woman on the right.  The first time I looked at this shot I thought she had a problem with her neck.  But I found her in another frame standing upright.  So it's just and interesting quizzical pose.

I am thinking that the image might be helped by toning down the light coming through the rear window.
