Thank you. I was leaning over the railing. Using the gradient in focus, in brightness to highlight the swerve of the curb. Glad you like this.

Nice, simple unpackaged fun.

Thank you. Heinz suggested this name, Medusa, when I was unable to think of one. Very apt, indeed. I went back to photograph these nasty girls, giggling at Medusa. These girls came over from the opposite shop window.

Thank you. I am looking for a road which progressively fades into darkness around a bend. But, here the roads are not long enough or too brightly-lit. This one is fine- can't have everything.

Thank you. A simple scene. I was attracted by the way we see simple scene as simplicity. I like the gradation in grey tones that separates the shapes. I am glad you like it.

Thank you. I had a 50mm with me at the time, but would have preferred a 35 mm. I stood underneath the right side to emphasise the convergence. The lightings are natural.

Thank you. A challenge for me to do this in B&W with film.

Thank you. This is a corner of a school wall which uses different materials. I found it interesting, as the materials have different textures.

Hi mitresg, thanks. Shot in DNG and converted to jpeg off line. Have not figured out how to nail a shot in jpeg yet, DNG is a safer option for me.
It's the rainy season in Anhiu and can be pretty depressing I guess.
I thought this was an old lady, but now I am not sure any more; I guess we'll never know for sure.
Thanks for the comment!

Thank you. I was firstly attracted by the prominent sign and the lamp. The sky( bright at the top, dark at the bottom - no, it was not PP) made the diff. The building beneath the lamp was a bonus, icing. Have to lift up my head.

Like the expression and the tonal range. M9 - did you do Jpeg or DNG? The words means 'expectation of good fortune to arrive"; he is stil waiting, it seems.

Like his expression - fierce independence. Scratched my head where this is - Taiwan? Those words on the bus, mixed with advertising, are exhortations.

Thank you. I like doing this kind of pics. I walked fairly close to the temple to point my lens skyward to the trio.
