    I like this, very much. There's an openness to it that's attractive.

    Yeah, the lady in red is the protagonist here, along with the up and down arrow sign.

    I like this especially in the context of two of your YIR 2009 pictures. It reminds me of the selective color bus but without the selective color. It has the same sense of different dimensions. And the picture with the people in cars and all the signs. It has the same sense of the overwhelming marketplace.
    If not now, when?

    Thanks Rutt. I was definitely seeing urban overload and that's what I wanted to capture. thumb.gif

    I like the possibility that's here. rolleyes1.gif Were I you, I'd turn this into a square, and lose everything to the left of the woman in red's hand. (Or right from the viewer's perspective.) clap.gifclap.gif

    Doesn't work for me. Now the out of focus mirror is smack in the center :-(

    Go back to the original and crop the green light. On screen, it looks less busy to me :-)

    I prefer the original too. The lady in red seems cramped in there now - not enough space to her left. The capture gives that wonderful feeling of sensory overload on a busy street. Love the colour too Richard.clap.gif

    I love this image. My eye immediately goes to (and lingers on) the girl in red, but there is so much more detail to discover! Good stuff.
