Widziałem tu setki takich zdjęć, że coś się w lusterku samochodowym odbija.

...wiem, wiem... "ale czy widziałem TAK ZAPODANE"? No nie, tak zapodanego to jeszcze nie widziałem.

Pozdrawiam.

Hi George,
I love these kind of daily life shots!
the dirty windshield, d lights,d traffic...its simply great:)
see my version hereand here:)
Best wishes,
Linda

It is not clear if it is snowing or it is just the dirty windshield, but the picture is very good anyway. Very eye catching with that out of focus red in foreground.
A very typical urban scene, taken in a very original interpretation.
Regards Stefano

The soft focus is mesmerising and well handled and eployed. i love the composition and the way its been composed. Lovely

it had to be you:)
can't see names or points . . . but this reminds me of a previous one of you . . . one I like better . . .
the focus is good on the mirror . . . the red light works . . . but that's about all . . .
I miss something here . . . people . . . an interesting street . . . an interesting car . . . vague, but still interesting.
I want to say "I hope you don't mind", but you don't buy into that crap . . . still, I admire you George . . . it's nothing . . . just my stupid thoughts :(
greetings from a thirsty Riga,
Davids

Znam to :)

I lubie !
W.

Fajne...
Czy widzialam tak zapodane ?
Tak, u Poloneza :).
Troche juz tych impresji bylo, ale za kazdym razem potrafisz zrobic to inaczej.
Podoba sie.
Pozdrawiam. Grazyna.

Oh, George...Yesssss, George: the city. Your city and any big city.... My Milan and my New York....This is SO a beautiful pic. One of the wonderful pics taken by the great G.G. But it's so sad too: it speaks about solitude. Just traffic and rain. The reason because I live here, now: in a little, little village in the Dolomites. 3000 souls and no more...I was tired about a big city.... Ehi, George: what a beautiful, intense photo! You always are able to give emotions! Thanks, A,P.

Miasto też ma oczy.
I kontakt wzrokowy można nawiązać...
Nie nadaję się dziś do komentowania, ale właśnie ten klimat mi wobec tego najbardziej odpowiada...
I co ja poradzę, że ja tu samą poezję widzę. Bo poezja może przecie i o p...dołach, ale jak pięknie i uniwersalnie :)))
Ale też jeszcze myślę sobie, że te samochody przecież same z siebie, z własnego wyboru w psią pogodę po mieście nie jeżdżą...
Pozdrowienia nostalgiczne T.

Hi George,

Nice to see how oyu always manage to turn something so common - driving in bad weather (very common in the Netherlands) - to something attractive. I'd almost just in my car to start driving around, hunting for attractive compositions without steering myself into a river... Nice one.

Greetings,
Dennis

very unusual shot.
perfect technique

George,
I just like your swift shots, minimal, depicting non-tradition details. I see a taste of existensialsm that I like and I am tempted now to experiment my way. I am going to throw away my digital camera and re-learn what I forgot with my old 1975 zenith!

Nice, ambiguous, greyish and somehow, I see a sentimental element to your photos even in this one.

cheers
