Quite a striking image posted here! Wonder where In The World you took it? Who is the woman on the RHS? Reckon they must have all won the World Peace Prize? Nicely taken!

Your shot is interesting. Those street art paintings are captivating. The portraits are painted with great care.
Your photo is perfect focused and exposed. I appreciate the sharpness of detail and the realism of light and color. The panorama format is adequate. The photo is well focused and framed. The composition is balanced.

Who ever painted this wall is a great artist, because the resemblance to the real people is remarkable. Of course I don't know how the rest of the wall is looking, but I like that you included Malala Yousafzai. Not only because she is one of the Noble Prize winners I admire the most, but because her outfit is red. It offers such a nice contrast to the other paintings done in black and white.

The photo is nice and sharp and it is indeed clear and well defined details to be seen in all the paintings. The exposure is perfect.

I also like the format you have cropped the photo into, but personally I would probably have cut out the sky as well. I think this is a great looking and well taken photo Mary.

    Thanks Annie - yes couldn't decide on cropping or not with sky in end decided to leave as to me it gave an idea of the size of wall.

Great tribute to all these historical figures and so nicely presented. Great presentation with a nice framing that complements the photograph. Wonderful details and so different expression are interesting and shows the vast human diversity.
Thank you for sharing.

Amazing composition of a tribute to Historical figures. I
I too love that so many cities and suburbs now use street art to tell stories.
Good focus and clarity.
Close up shot allows the viewer to see the incredible details. I like the blue sky above the street art, it adds to the photo.
Nice shot.

What talent these street artists have. I have been collecting graffiti from the places we have been in Mexico. Like this one, there are remarkably gifted artists and there are not many walls or garage doors that are not painted.

Great capture of these renowned people Nancy ~ Steve

I love street art and here it certainly adds interest and color to the plain brick wall, it's a wonderful tribute to and a way to honor these famous figures, this also shows the skill of the artist who painted them.
You have captured this well with good focus, this image is sharp and clear, lighting is well managed, I like the bit of blue sky and clouds above the wall, this really allows the viewer a good sense of this location . Well composed and presented!
