Very good but strong image, in my opinion your title is relly, relly go with to this pictures. This is telling pictures. I like composition with walking man and sleeping man and shadow of course. well done

I see a palm tree with no hidden fruits...just the spoils of a society gone wrong. K

**** A shocker. A man steps away from a sack in the street that appears to surreally exploding or growing. And then we realize that sack is a sleeping human being. Incredible abstraction and incongruity -- an amazing image, Jen, another decisive moment brilliantly organized in space and time. The shadow symbolizes the ever growing plague of homelessness that has engulfed Shanghai, and many other cities as well. Meanwhile, the public, symbolized by the man walking briskly through the image, ignores the issue. If we don't see it, it will go away.

a concept so often explored, but i love how you do it with Jen's personal style! the focus on only feet depersonalises the picture (in a good way) and makes it universal...it could be our feet walking away, just as easily as it could be our own feet poking out from the lonely world beneath that cover. the shape of the shadow adds so much, the darkness is seeping out, almost as though it may come to haunt anyone who dares to walk on by without a second thought. brilliant stuff. v.

A compelling yet sad image and title. Everyone else is walking away while he's sleeping, under the shade of harshness and vulnerability. We can't help but to feel helpless...
