Great street photography here - there's a clear narrative, and the faces of the subjects are also interesting. Where are they taking this, on such a rainy day? The scrapyard, or maybe even a secondhand dealer? New apartment?

Love the shot.

Yes they where off to the scrap dealers. We often get these situations in cape town. I saw 4 guys carrying a bed the other day and it looked like a bed and four pallbearers.

Great street shot, makes you wonder what the story is behind this, maybe there are on the way to the scrap merchant, or perhaps some off-site repairs!

Collin, you sure find some funny situations to shoot there in Cape Town. The title is very funny too. You never know what you can see on the streets! It looks like the Speed Queen is having a great time, she is laughing out loud!
