Wow! So nice. Old good times. I like the slight sepia cast to it.

Cool hat on that guy (3rd person from the left)! neat photo. Looks like the public hangout or is there a bus stop sign I'm not seeing?

A great picture. Everyone is lost in their own world. We stand and wait and barely notice each other or talk to each other these days.

This is a really crisp B&W conversion. It almost looks like there is still a very small touch of color in it. The sign in the middle seems to have a very slight hint of red in it. Very cool looking shot.

I really like the almost harsh contrast on this shot. Strong black and white with muted gray scales works well in some shots...this is one of them.

Love this shot, great choice for b&w.
To me the sunshine suggests an activity packed summery day, but the shadows tell how low the sun is, and the scarfs and jackets how cold it is.
So then we just have these people that are a little out of the ordinary for sitting and standing in the cold, and it looks great.

What are they waiting for?

Stark! Cold! Strange! I can't smell the perfume. Have no money to change or buy a gift. Next!

I think I like the fact that this image is black and white compared to some of your other street images. With the lighting, it almost looks like an old photo. Kinda cool.

The black and white exalts the contrasts that increase with simple geometry of the photo. Indeed beautiful.

Imagine our life without a road to shoot across

oh, gosh, I miss the city. . .thanks for the glimpses of "home".

They are waiting for the St. Patrick's day parade.

Why are they wearing those hats and sitting in chairs, hanging out on the sidewalk? There must be something going on I don't get. Kind of intriguing. Oh, and the maple leaves still seem to retain a hint of red to me :)

I especially like the tones to this shot.

Posted by micki at March 23, 2006 02:15 PM

This is great. I think it works really well in black and white.

Posted by Kamyar at March 23, 2006 02:23 PM

They all look like some figurines in a model town or something...

I like how the contrast appears deeper on the people than on the buldings, is this photoshop or just people in high contrast clothing?

Posted by JD at March 23, 2006 02:38 PM

I am here watching this picture for the third time...I´ll be back...:)

Posted by Jens at March 23, 2006 02:48 PM

Looks like it's from the movies. Old documentaries or sth. wow :)

Posted by Peggy at March 23, 2006 03:01 PM

The sharpness and clarity of your photos always amaze me, Sam. I love the lighting and the sephia-like theme. Great capture.
