Nice image, David. I love the suggestions of people moving on each side as the subjects remain somewhat frozen in time. #506982

Many thanks for your kind comments, they are very encouraging. Street photography has become a bit of a passion for me. It's like having the power to stop time and hold it, create a historical moment to go back and explore, a moment that without the camera would have slipped past like the people in the fore and background. I always end up wondering what people are thinking, where are the passers-by going to, whats' happening for them?

It's also very exciting being a finalist!

Warmest regards from Oxford
