Thanks Dante. That was exactly the aspect that made me choose this shot. I
don't know the people, so it's not like one of my many portraits. With all
this talk about street photography, I decided to give it a shot again. I

I always seem to get up in their faces :)

I liked the expressions. Not that they're pleasant, but they reflect
something I can see in Swedish society.

Thanks for your comment.
Daniel
