I like the high contrast processing and the way it brings out the grittiness and age in the scene. The one time I was in Shanghai in 1998, we mostly only got to see very new at the time areas. ~BV~

I stumbled across this and I am so glad. The dramatic composition and stark tones work so well together. "VV"

A moment in time that speaks to the human experience. There is a special power and emotion in this capture that conveys the spirit of this place that exceeds the visual impact of this image itself. Your POV elevates this image to a masterful capture. VVV+++

An exceptional "street" shot. Wonderful intimated detail in the
foreground figure. as a sideline the construction of that bamboo
chair is quite interesting.

A nice well composed candid street shot. Works well in B&W.

So many wonderful textures, from the brick pavers to the man's knit sweater and cap. Very well done. V

An amazing street scene. The high contrast mono is spectacular here. Love how you can just get a glimpse of the man's face over his shoulder and the others in the distance. The textures of his sweater and hat seal the deal for a top notch shot.

Great depth and detail. This has a strong sense of loneliness with how she seems to be watching the people. V
