I am you

Shot in a Berlin neighbourhood whilst out walking early on saturday morning.

I don't think I have ever wanted to go back to a place as much as I want to return to Berlin.

This reminds me a ittle of @apogee2012 and her great grungey shots of NYC.

This is one of my favourite photos of mine.
Clever title and a great shot Sean. Even the shadow has something to say.

Like the image -- great combination of elements from person to graffiti to shadow to textures.

I like the 'Cartier-Bresson' quality of this picture.

@andyr Cheers Andy, I know the work of Vivian Maier well, she was an incredible photographer. It is so sad that her work has only been discovered and achieved fame after her death, and that she never benefited from it's success.

Of course you know I love this shot. My cup of tea. Your composition is spot on. It allows the eye to see the whole story and then explore the mini-stories. I really like the poster of the girl at the top/centre. She seems to pop off the wall. The shadow of the walking guy is cool. Thanks for the nod:) Fav.

Berlin must be the world's graffiti capital, it's everywhere! Love this, Sean... the guy's shadow makes the shot of course!

Love this too. The stance of the man, the shadow on the pavement, the chaos of the graffiti behind him, which contrast nicely with the square pattern of the I am u signs. Fav

Wonderful street shot I think ! There's so much to see : the lonely man and his shadow, the messages on the wall... A fav for me !
