El dia de Nadal a un carrer del Caire, com podem veure, adornat a tope de llumetes de nadal !!! La gent allà no viu per res tota la bogeria nostra d'aquestes dates i pels que no els hi agradi gaire, és una destinació fabulosa.

The x-mas day in the Cairo city, so far of our christmas day, no lights, no Santas, no trees, nothing. The paradise for the people that don't like our "christmas spirit". People there are full of life and the streets are like rivers where everything is posible, to buy, to talk, to spent time, to look, to meet friends, all is right in the Caire streets, also the x-mas if you want it.

I want to wish you MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW MAGIC AND WONDERFUL YEAR 2005

PS. Pass to B&W and Duotone.

Good daily life shot.
Thanks for doing in Sepia.
Perfect framing.
Good light situation.

I have seen such rivers of crowded happy and shopping people also in Istanbul, that is a very successful capturing of that atmosphere.

I prepared a WS for you in order to provide an alternative, where contrast is higher and the image is B&W.

However, sephia tones are nice as well.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR

the same to you Jordi... no time today.
Happy new year..

Very nice picture Jordi! Full of life! Somehow when I see a picture like this it reminds me of a place that I have never been... "Napoli"... Gracias! R

Hola Jordi, és una imagte interessant del "nadal" egipci. Trobo encertat el treball del color, però penso que li cal una mica més de contrast per apreciar més profunditat a la foto. Una salutació.
