Rain or Shine, Umbrella's fine

Comment by B74A:
A bit hazy, so clos-ups are OK, but as you saw in another photo in the same series, objects need not be far away before the start getting greyed out by the haze (+35 deg celcius and somewhat humid).

Thank you for the comments on all the pictures :-)

And btw, note that it isn't raining, but many Chinese (mainly women) want to be more white in the skin, so they try not to get tanned (opposed to many of us caucasians!). Also, I guess it helps prevent them from sweating in the heat ...

Ooooooh. . .I like this alot. My kind of photo, and this is very well done. I wonder what that is. It's so striking.

Very interesting and pretty. I love that backlighting and the crisp silhouettes!! It might even have more impact if it was rotated just a teeny tiny bit so that it was straight. But I just live this!!! Very awesome!

You have certainly gotten the scale of the buildings and people, but I wish the color wasn't washed out toward the back. This is a really interesting series. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks :-) It's a good view from the office as well, but thick compund windows - not so good for clarity!
