The winner for this week's Reader SunShots series City Life goes to Albert W. Wu for his picture of kids playing in an alley way during a birthday party. It was taken with an iPhone 4S. Here is a critique by director of photography Robert Hamilton: "Everything about this picture says urban life. From the alley way as a setting, to the racial mixture of the children, fueled by cupcakes, playing together. Even the attentive parent enjoying the scene in the background adds to the picture. There is just a beautiful energy to this photograph."
