Interesting shots here. Love the body language in # 3. Been there when I stood watch in the Navy--"Man, is this watch ever going to end." Love the weenie dog in #4.

Hi Pekka! I really like the effect in the 1st shot. The 2nd shot looks like he was PS'd in the background. The 3rd shot is kind of humorous bcoz he has a gun and I assume he's holding a broomstick. I like the 4th shot cuz I like Japanese chicks in skirts. I like them all. :)

I like the 1st one best. Is he asleep in the 2nd? 4th one has some strange perspective - why are they're heads so big?!

Nice shots Pekka, My favorite is #1 - I love how you captured the movement AND the reflections! followed closely by #3 for the attitude you captured (along with more reflections :) ). Agree with JDrizzle about the photoshopped in look in #2. #4 definitely a snapshot. :)

Thanks! The second shot was in subway, the man was standing in front of a big poster, no PS there.

Nice selection of shots, Pekka.

Seems he's trying to keep awake in #3. :lol:

A shame with the 4th one, I think it would have just been that little bit better if focus was up front. :)
(surprisingly I recall having a similar shot from Thailand, of a dog, people and low perspective, but focussed on the back, so deleted it)

Without context the picture looks really weird because the background is not natural. I like #3 the best.
