[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Orchard is one of the busiest area in Singapore. People from around the world come here to spend their money.

This old lady with her harmonica tried to catch attention from shoppers to spare some pennies for a simple meal.

The picture taken nearby Orchard Road MRT (subway) station. She often moved from one spot to another to avoid the authority. Next time you come to Singapore get ready with your camera, and spare some $ for her, OK?

Technical info: no tripod, camera pushed against railing to minimize shaking.

Beautifull photo Judhi. It contains a story within. Nothing to say about the composition because is quite right, I like the idea sheīs the only one sharp while the money people arenīt. Usually in real life itīs all the way around: We dont see poor people and just fix our eyes in those who seem to be like us. Congratulations from Madrid.
Ps: Good idea the BW

she looks familiar, i think I have seen her in one of those mrt before. Great capture of movement and good choice of bw.

Great picture Judhi, looks very professional, it's like a documentary in itself. Which setting didi you use on your A80?
