At first glance of the thumbnail I thought this was a photograph but now I can see it's a painting. I love how you've not 'olished' the piece of giving the whole thing a sense of being alive and vibrancy. Having rough edges can often give a painting that doesn't look finished, yet this one does and it works so very well.

The composition you've gone for works really well drawing the viewer deeper into the painting, although my eye tends to linger on the lantern seller because I just love the colours you've used and the lantern designs.

The whole piece works very well together and you should be really pleased with this even if it was only a 'quick' painting.
