Are all the people down there taking a picture of you? I doubt they are but it makes me question what is going on and adds another layer to the picture. I love the colours. I love that everyone is taking a picture. I love that some of them seem to be looking at you whilst taking their own picture. Maybe worth cropping a little tighter to avoid the area of green in the top left?
Good choice on the shutter speed - just enough blur but not too much. Love the man looking at his phone and my eye goes straight to him, around the other people then back to him. My only suggestion would be to possibly crop in slightly tighter to get rid of the other static people at the top of the frame.
A really interesting picture. Obviously the first thing the viewer notices is the couple in the middle kissing but then there are several other things going on around that are also great. Maybe converting it to b/w would make the viewer look around the image more readily without being distracted by the yellow shirts on the left? It also may have been nice to have the couple off centre in the frame but otherwise a lovely crowd image well done.
I found that I kept coming back to this image. The central composition with the perspective pulling your eye further back into the photo works really well. I love all the people half collapsed on the sofa. Maybe it would have been worth increasing the ISO so you could have got a faster shutter speed to avoid the motion blur of the people walking but otherwise great image well done.

**This contest is open to photographers ranked 1000+ in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** Crowds provide interest on a macro and a micro level. It’s fascinating observing and shooting the mass of a crowd, the coming together of so many souls into one space, to watch, celebrate, cheer, demonstrate. Images can be packed with many stories and much energy. Closer-up, individuals in the crowd can provide a focus for observing crowd behaviour, and the intensity of emotions that often comes with being in a crowd and at the sort of places they converge.
