Good grief.  8 AM.  It's got to be the lack of coffee.  Got to be. 
Everyone must have slept through the first sessions.  ;-))

>>Aaron - I really like both of these.   The first brings alive the 
>>rush of the crowd and the feeling of an early winter afternoon. 
>>(This has to be an afternoon - people stand taller in the morning.) 
>>My eye goes straight to the sunlit gal to the left and then moves 
>>to the open mouth of the fellow closer to the camera to her left. 
>>They're both clearly focused on getting somewhere they really need 
>>to be quickly.  The stance of the others in the photo emphasizes 
>>their rush.  While I think the photo would have worked without the 
>>shadow of the street lamp, the fact that it's there emphasizes the 
>>low sun angle and adds to the mood of the photo.  Wonderful!

>>In the second, the use of the crane boom to separate the distinctly 
>>different cloud formations is very nice seeing.  It is a very 
>>pleasing photo.

>>Thanks for the look.
