Have to say I like the white/neon bits here a lot as a counterpoint to the night athmosphere. The whole format is graphic and very clean, and the colours give it warmth. The slight sense of blur let me feel the motion and e-motion of maybe being enclosed in a taxi or car and have an alien world yet one where people live like people live everywhere basically passing by. would love to explore that side lane we are looking at as a black hole...

I like the total emptyness of this image. The central empty focus point, with the deep opening of the street, no man, just tracks of him, lights or the meaningless phone number you draw our attention on. You say it's in Egypt, but apart the very unobtrusive arabic fonts on the sign on the left, nothing tells it. It looks like the street I took tonight in Herford, it looks like some empty streets I strolled in Paris of London. It's just a "standard nowhere"

A beautiful picture this. The whole composition just sits there in such a balanced harmonious way. Time just flows, whereas normally that features up-front and in yerr face in such images...all flashy streaks and lights. Not so here, it just sits as part of the fabric of the image.

I could look at this for ages... it belongs as a big print on a wall... in fact, once I get things sorted out I may be in touch about one...

Lovely, subtle work.

Best wishes-
Andy
