Really great with the man peaking at you from the doorway. Nice glow.

@Elaine-: Thanks Elaine....laugh? I think not..it rocks my dear!
Before what??? What is he going to do??? I love the reflection of his head! Its a bit scary...whats going to happen??? A great emotive thought provoking image:-)

I really like the hint of reflection in the glass =)
It is a great picture!

The quality! I like that he looks annoyed with being photographed somehow but you managed to make it into something else. I like how the bus goes to 10 different Hastings! :)
On an average, how much time do you spend Lr or Ps:ing your pictures?

@6ft5: Thanks so much! On average just a few minutes. Mostly to adjust contrast, convert to greyscale, perhaps add blur. If I'm dodging and burning, a little more. Never more than 15 minutes, and that's actually a long time.
Funny thing is, regarding the annoyed guy, I did not even notice his expression until I got this image onto the computer...my main focus was the people on the sidewalk and traffic in the street, his 'role' was just a figure leading up to the rest of the scene.
A "dense" shot, intriguing as always. You've really mastered your own genre... I wish I could do that. :)

Like tha way you captured this frame, nice in BW.
19 Oct 2008 8:03am
WOW! Love the dreaminess and the hint of drama in this shot. Its really great!

Title is perfect...and who wouldn't look at you ;) Love this photo, as always !

@Lorraine: Thanks Lorraine....but it's 'how' they look in my direction that can be a little scary ;)
Beautiful light and composition. Great urban scene!

A superb street capture, quite an intimidating look from the guy, doesnt seem to like his photo taken, but more than just that to me he looks shifty and wants to be unnoticed and obscure and your camera pointing at him goes against that, well thats min running overboard on this I know
but none the less superb capture very interesting

as always -- stupendous work BC!! i really enjoyed Alessandro's comment -- and think it is 100% true! you really have taken photography and image making to a completely different level -- a level all your own that is full of spirits and magic!! bravo as always, bravo!!

there's tension here - like a moment from an unusual spy movie.

The blur has a remarkable effect on this image . . it does not just soften but suggests a sort of hesitancy, a stumble in time, an approximation of the moment.

It's like you are a time-traveller and you just happened to pop in (and then out) at this precise moment in time, staying barely just long enough to snap this quick shot.

Captivating shot, love the lights and the perspective. The bw processing is top notch, excellent composition.
20 Oct 2008 1:53am
Cool street phot, with some nice effects, like the ghost like features of the guy on the left. B&W rerally works well. Great processing

The first thing I noticed was that guy staring straight at you. Maybe annoyed, but also a little curious..I think. The umbrella and the buses are a couple of my favorite things about this shot. Another nice one:-)

i dont dare to photograph people.. precisely cos of looks like that.. looks like he's staring right at u (thou u only realised him later during editing lol). interesint sidewalk ceiling
20 Oct 2008 11:00am
Another fantastic image. Looks like something out of a dream... or perhaps a nightmare! I think it's fine on downtown city streets to just point and shoot. No one can really expect privacy, there!
20 Oct 2008 12:31pm
I really like this one... the look on his face to me is more askance than annoyance... and the triad of the bus to the umbrella to the man really makes this image's balance fantastic.
