    I love all of these! My favorite is the first with the glimpse of the street through the colorful bazaar.

    The colours and blur of life on the street are my favourite. Great as always.

    Hey! I think that's my Alpine tape deck from 1991, sixth from the top on the left.

    Great shots, as usual. How nice to live somewhere so photogenic. Do shots of urban USA look as exotic to you as these do to me? I often wonder about that.

    Hehehe, surprisingly you can find brand new gadgets from fancy shops located in this bazaar and 20 years old 2nd hand stuff on footpaths.

    Yes i love USA's culture, i have an old book "Day in the life of America" which was gifted to my father in late 80's, that book made me photographer ! will love to shoot in urban environment around USA clap.gif

    A good day's work, Awais! I particularly like #2, for the juxtaposition of the man and the 'women' behind him - nicely seen and captured. The first would be stronger had you gotten the main rider when his head came out from behind the hanging star.clap.gifclap.gif
