Thanks! This is a very big intersection with 3 large shopping malls and one hospital. It’s always full of taxis, buses and motorcycles but had to wait for the red taxis. There are also pink, blue, & half-half yellow-green taxis

Thank you kindly Both , really glad you like this .. I went out for a few hours yesterday with 2 cameras ( i never do this ) was shooting 35 and a 105 that worked out about 150mm .. It was fun but not something i could do every walk things begin to get heavy after about 2 miles lol.
Very productive though 🙂

Old signs like these a far a few these days and instantly draw the eye , i would love to see those older wooden handmade signs make a comeback but it will never happen people love the plastic too much now.
Even the cinemas these days at least over here look like shopping malls , nothing like the good old days were the movie showing was front and center of the buildings , door men , now its hi vis fest and pepper spray lol.

This stands out to me a lot Pat , could easily see that in an add , the cars facing opposite directions is what i love mostly but also the colours of each car in that main scene ground it lovely for me .
