[Leica] People Shots

[afirkin at afirkin.com (afirkin at afirkin.com)]

Cycle cart: great colour, I love this sort of image, Rickshaw puller: fine
portrait of a hard working man. On the road: odd shot, but grows on me.
The feeling of departure wins me over, there is a farewell feeling to the
image, so much movement and so unlike the first 2.

Cheers

Keep them coming, its only pixels ;-)
