    I wanted to know too so I googled it.

    French = "Plague"
    Romanian = "Over"

    However, I suspect it's neither of those translations. Tried Russian but came up with nothing.

    Yuri will have to translate.

    BTW Yuri, are you using a long lens for these? It seems like people pay you no mind when shooting them so that's why I ask.

    I really like #7--the boredom of the woman on the right and the composition are great.

    #1, #4, #7, #8 for me.

    Th mannequin legs make #1, along with the "twins".

    #4 - good caption. I like what you are going for.

    #7 - as others have said.

    #8 - I like the yawner on the bench.
