Girl At The Wall

A girl leans against a graffiti covered wall in downtown Liuzhou on the Sunday evening of Mid-Autumn Festival. It looks calm and quiet but less than 10 meters to her right it was hoppin'. The city center was easily the most crowded I've ever seen it both on Saturday and Sunday evenings.

Wonderful colours, very nice composition. I`m impressed about the sharpness in this. Its not crispy sharp but its shot on 1/30 and its dusk, I see the ISO and the 40D handles 400 very well.

Chinese graffiti. Really fascinating...love the lonely, slightly dangerous feel to the photo....even though I know that this was on a night with lots of people out and about.

--amazing composition. What I love is how busy the graffiti is, and yet the whole scene looks so clean, the ground, the hydrant. the girl, it almost looks like a stage set, especially with the lighting.
