Soup eaters #1 for me - I really like the way you've managed to catch one of them looking down and one up. A striking image.

Soup eaters & two trolleys. However I have never understood this forums' fascination with B&W shots - there's a time and a place - and I bet Two Trolleys looks great in colour !

I'm one of those on this forum with a fascination for black and white. But as you say there's a time and place and in this case I prefer Tim's colour shots to these monos, good as they are.Soup eaters & two trolleys.

Thanks for the comments folks.
Regarding black and white it's just personal preference I suppose. I happen to quite like it
Gareth I was quite taken with that pavement as well! I hung around that street for a while:

PS the written language around here is Chinese although to confuse the issue even more in this part of China people speak Cantonese.
