The tracks left behind by the tractor and of course, by the seagulls is one reason I took this. Why should the seagul tracks run in parallel to those of the tractor's? 5am.

Thank you. Fascinating architecture. I spend time often standing there to watch the interplay of light. And to think that this is one of the first mall. Genius.

Thank you. This street at Gold Coast, with shops and restaurants, has a homely feel. For business, of course, but it does not have the overtly "only for business" feel. Merry Xmas.

I had a 35mm f1.4 but shot the pic at f8. Still, the lens was not enough to catch the panoramic view. So I tried to get a B&W to get the converging shoreline with the ocean rolling in. Seems more fun.

This Japanese lady was actually a life-size photo. I was intrigued by the way she peered out behind the parted curtain. The 2 at the bottom were reflections. Thank you.

Thank you. Although I wanted to leave the figure behind blurred, I wasn't sure I could get some details from the hat. This is about all I could get. The rim had been burned out. Well, may be just as well.

Amazing lens. Must have shot it in near darkness. It seems the middle-to-back are in focus, but the foreground is selective blurred. Is that how the 50 Lux works?

Thank you. "Monkey King goes West" has always been popular. West here means India - to get the original Buddhist sutras - and the legendary trip took place around 100 AD. I took this pic to bring out the graduated lighting of the ceiling-sized decor.

Thank you. The morning sunlight made a diff to an otherwise dull scene. Shot at 2.8, I focused on the violins on the wall; this threw the cello at the bottom out of focus, but enough to do a job.
