I see an unfortunate person not checking his email or chatting. Do they ignore the DOW Jones?

Most interesting. Everything is in motion, even the no entry sign! Wonderful

I don't know what I like more about this photograph. The youngsters walking like penitents, the shadow, the composition, the slight blur that is more like a steam, the waving line of a hose that is superfluous…I probably love mostly that it's something I could never do. Especially the processing. After a period of doing all kinds of layers and more elaborate processing a photograph like yours is a true moment of "respiro"

What a soulful documentary here!
Each time you produce another easy I am prompted to follow in your footsteps and look at a place, a neighborhood, a town with the same precision and refinement as you do.

I will go back several times and spend more time with your collection but have to note that there are a few shots that stayed with me from the first viewing:
- the food stamps image could become a political statement, a poster
- the boy, so small and barely visible from the crowd looking with timidly and with love and touching gently the hand of his younger sibling
- the woman who seemed to have just dipped her rose to become rosy
- in the B&W collection, the spider web of cranes and nets and poles as if scribbling on the sky

The cover photo is a different story. I would use it in a different essay and make as cover for this essay the long picture that starts the hofoster page

Another lovely essay worth becoming a book

I read and looked several times, ebb and flow …..and each page told me a different and sometimes contradictory thing and I liked this fluctuation of ideas a lot.
I love the gestures of retreat - page 8, 9 and 10 and, just as I instinctively always do, I accompanied each verset and image with my own reflection.
Great last page.
I imagine this printed in a small format, to be held in one's hand as a precious pebble

I do have several strong objections in respect to the graphics of your essay.
- I wished that the images were similar in size; pages of a little book
- the color of the lettering to be different than the poetry of the photos - either really strong color or font or totally neutral (page 2 and 11 is one of the best I think as marriage between text and image)
- page 7&9 suffer from the way the verse appears

Last but not least, I am mesmerized by these photo essays (let's not forget that you started them here) and by the way you construct yours
