I love the woman (?) on the rigth who seems to be beetween them and us, as Jeff said it. As Marisa, I'm addicted too (and I don't want any medecine! I want some more!!;)

#91 is the bus number.. I always hate the rainy days during the winter in shanghai.. It is cold and wet everywhere...And now you take out all the colors, and put those numbers in, making the scene ever more cold and unbearable....

Thumbs up for this one. No idea what the 91 is, but I like it.

I love this, as other said, it's very moody, we feel as if we were within a story without kwnowing exactly what's going on. Great black and white, very intense black in the lower part of the image.

I like the old vs the new here. The digital against the writing , well seen indeed.

Deep impact! I like the screen of rain which isolates the people and, at the same time, makes them more human, concrete in their daily life. I'm addicted to your images by now. Marisa

Well done, Kal. You use abstraction in three ways to make this image express its idea. You shoot the subjects from behind instead of from the front, you photograph them through a rain streaked window that further obscures them, and finally, you convert the image to black and white, that heightens the sense of symbolism here.

Another gerat shot! The black and white is perfect for the mood. The passanger in back is on the outside looking in.
