Like the grainy texture, it's different for you. Half of them look freezing and the other half don't seem to be bothered by the cold at all. Great juxtaposition!
Just curious if you've ever had someone get upset over you taking their picture....
I never really got bothered by anybody (well once, in Harlem a few years ago). oftentimes people would see me with a camera and stare at it, but I guess they can't figure out what's going on. On some rare occasion people may cover their faces or turn away and I'd oftentimes still get a shot.

Nice B&W. I like the focus on the main character and the overall atmosphere

Tense capture. With a sort of indifference to it. Wicked cool Markus!

Splendid! Works on many levels. Looks like someone put a seed pod under her bed.

Fantastic Marcus! May I ask which camera-lens you used? My guess is the Leica
