    Happy New Year to you as well. Great displays of colour in these. I didn't realize there was a person in the last shot - the colour overpowers him. Might you post it again in B&W?
    I like the diagonal balance of the pretty woman and the person walking away in #1. Again, I wonder if the composition might have more street impact in B&W without the distraction of the vibrant colours, pretty though they are.

    The color in these images, and on the images in stphoto's website, are what make these images
    truly outstanding. Not to get carried overboard, but "rich tapesty of color" comes to mind.

    Agreed. The colour is what makes the images except #1 in my opinion. The colours are glorious. From a documentary theme though, should photos be all about the colour? Perhaps "Other Cool Shots" forum would be a better home. Just a thought.
