Thanks  ////  One of those "rare" days out .... without a tripod .... my fastest lens was a 2.8 24mm Nikkor .. still most shots were at about 1/15 to 1/ 6o  ... but had fun without carry the cases and iron Gitzo around.

I especially like the detail of the cyclist/pedestrian at the point of convergence.

Glad you caught that -- I waited until they were just the right size /angle to keep you focused on the path ... thanks

A classic. But the sweeping job looks hopeless.

Like music and dance, photography is a realtime art.

Brilliant.

The pedestrian looks like Jesus ( even has an aura ). The roadsweepers cart is bowing.
