I'm sure someone must have described it as thus allready... but it's incredible how it seems as thou the grey matter surrounding him expands as he progresses forward. As if his monotoniously routine life style is devouring everything it encounters. Sadly enough.. everything is about the way we percieve our environment.. and thus our mood and mind set will paint a red brick wall grey if we do not have a purple soul.
Beautiful off set composition, gorgeous subdued colors, and spot on motion blurr...not too much, yet just enough. Superb.

Great street shot. Everything works in this image. Love the contrast between the cool gray curved shape and the warm angular brick.
Add a guy wearing blue with a balding round head and you've got something. Bravo.

Happiness and sorrow
some people are happy some not
and that wall almost demonstrate it
a person standing with his back against the bright wall were be perfect
and not cutting the man's legs as well
still excellent capture
