The last one, though a great frame, doesn't belong with this otherwise very strong set. I love the human interest story here, everyone doing their thing as they are beginning their day. Very poignant and diversified set of activities, from smoking to praying.

 

On second thought, I see the last one as a stand in for you, the observer.

 

Excellent set!

Hello Stuart.

A Vg set of images of happenings in the early mornings in the big city.Did you set your alarm clock for this . I never have been an early riser except during my stint in the army.It hurts to much. By the way .How can I post pictures like you and centre them. I haven't got a clue.Greetings: John Basso.

Thank you for sharing.

 

I'd return another morning and try to get a better shot of picture #3. For me, a strong shot but due to it's poor quality it has this paparazzi "look", as in taken from far and then cropped. In contrary with, for example picture #1 and the last one, that are far more "clean", in order to keep the serie "consistent".

 

Personally, I would exclude the last picture because I don't see the connection.

Maybe not a bad idea to take your own reflection, as being "awake" yourselve !?

Brent - thank you.

 

Luc - Thank you. I wish I had done better with #3 and I should try to recreate it another morning. It was the first shot of the day and I was more excited by the opportunity than I should have been. I think you're right about trying to get my reflection in #5.

 

John - Thank you. Barbara & I like to get to work early (usually by 6:30) and I get up early even on weekends, though Barbara luxuriates in sleeping in. To post with the images centered (and you'll notice space between them) I forget the first, one-time only step, which I think involved right clicking on the tool bar to add the attachment paperclip icon. Then I type my message, press the Enter key twice, click the centered icon in the button bar. then click the attach icon, browse for and upload the image(s), close that window. Click the attach icon again and click Post All Images (or something like that). it takes a bit more time but I much prefer it even with just one image.
