I like the different movements in this street scene to look at.

thanks Brent and tv. I like this too (glad you could explain to me why)
If you're interested, this is looking west at dusk (makes for an interesting - but not easy - lighting situation imo).

Another great street shot - more complicated than usual - for many reasons but in addition to the those sighted, I'm enjoying the way the composition invites exporation of the numerous other details captured - the wedge formed by the lines in the street clearing the way forward for the gaunt, laboring driver, the echo of the yellow pedicab in the upper left, the midground trio of parading girls in the crosswalk, the line of cars receding into the bg, even the girl waiting to cross in the upper right who seems to have captured the attention of the man on the left. Unusually successful urban street scene. -tv

I like the white line finishing out in the corner too. Funny what Rod brings up about the skinny guy hauling the fat one around town :-)

It's already had a very slight crop over there and it's pretty grainy already. Besides, I kind of like the white line and there needs to be some room to show the forward movement... but thanks for the suggestion.

Wot a contrast wiv the bloke working his body to the bone & the fat cat taking it easy:-)
I'm not sure but I think a crop to near the blokes front wheel on the right tightens the picy up somewot. Goodun Penny.
