I really like the juxtaposition of the traffic lights and the agent. This seems so stereotypically Russian to me. You have a wonderful storytelling eye. #1150742

Thanks, Alan,
I was facsinated by the combination of three figures (two "don't go" guys and an "agent") - their poses and colors sort of rhyme. I did miss a tele lens at the time - 105 mm wasn't enough, so I had to crop the rest out after the fact. :) #7713052

Thank you so much, Susana! A compliment from a pro like you means a lot to me.
I checked your pholio thinking to post a comment or two for the pics I like the best, but soon realized I'd spend a whole day writing - they are all amazing works. Adding you as Favourite Photographer! :)
