16:57

A street photo taken at Changi Airport, Singapore. Using the natural light as backlighting, these people were quickly snapped in silhouetted as they were walking away. I’m surprised how similar these people are. They echoed each other in terms of being in a pair. Also, the pairs in the foreground are single dad with their only child.

All this captured at the time 16:57.

    What a wonderful capture. I really like the one lost soul sitting in the background. I think we have all been the person at some point in our lives. The splash of red just sets it all off.

    G’day Sprintlist,
    I know where YOU were at three minutes to five that afternoon!
    This great silhouette has quite a lot of impact and has been made very well indeed.
    Your exposure control has to be applauded as it has rendered a good clear silhouette and a background that still retains good detail without blow-outs.
    Your depth of field and focus combination has make even fine detail easily discerned.
    The colour tones add a lovely mood to the image.
    Very good work!
    God bless you and yours,
    Dennis

    I love this style of fotograph.

    Simple, clean, eseentially monotone. Lines and perspective. Silhouetteted people.

    I think the digital clock is a riot. Its kinda like the time/date stamp you get on your fotos from dinky pocket-digital cameras… but its not. The red against the blue is really eye catching.

    I like the rough edges too.
