I wandered the street wearing sunglasses so people would not notice the I would occasionally close my eyes for a few moments before doing a slow pirouette while firing off the camera hanging from the strap from just above my hip.

This was an interesting exercise.

Such wonderful light. It adds to the perspective in a big way. Hopefully we get another blind challenge soon?

Poignant, and the angle gives it an edgy feel.

I really like this shot. The differentness, the "scariness", the colors, detail, angle, everything. Nicely done.
