The shot of the guy in the animal print top is great. Looks like a rock star of the 80's who got lost on his way to the 90's.

Well there's the answer for you Darren. Dig out the old school shorts, blazer and cap and get back out there! Some nice shots anyway.

Darren - that's very cool
You must have balls of steel to hand over your camera to an 11 year old!

How old is Darren?
I love the shot of the dancing black guy with the awesome side burns
Even down to the colour of his clothes against the blue and green background ... That's a really great photo if you ask me!

Cheers Hamish, he's 11 and LOVES taking photos, he has a crappy Olympus point & shoot, and his ipod for his pics usually, But last time i went back home during school holidays & took both my cams so he could use one, these were taken with Canon 40D & 55-250mm cheap canon telephoto, i took him for a ride around & about & past the airport but all he wanted to do was get mooching around Manchester city centre "People Spotting" we were mooching for nearly 6 hours, and he usually HATES walking anywhere with a passion, but i guess when he's walking doing what he wants to do its a different story. I gonna buy him a cam for xmas, problem is which one lol
Quite impressive aint they.....

The picture of the guy stuffing his face cracks me up 
The picture of the headphone guy is striking as well. He was obviously deeply in his own world.
I think Canon 1100D is a good camera for a 11 year old. It does everything that a DSLR should do at a very reasonable price.

Darren - excellent!
RE feet phobia, most likely a case of putting the head/face more in the center of the frame, as we all do when starting off.
Have a quiet word with him about putting the head/face nearer the top of frame - or maybe pre-select the upper AF point for him, and telling him to put that over the face.
He's a lucky kid with some natural talent for sure - that camera for Christmas idea is a winner
