生活节奏

生活节奏

I was having my lunch at Tiong Bahru Hawker Centre wen they sat down. Dont know why but the lady took out the hour glass and place it there. She looks tired.

What comes to my mind is the fast pace in Singapore. Everybody seems to be driven bu a invisible clock inside their head and that there just isnt enough time for everything.

Is it able to show you my thought?

well. from ur caption, it looks like time is the factor.
i would rather focus on the hourglass more.

but i really like the way it is already

sexay bokeh!

Should have the hourglass in focus. Without your write up, I would have totally missed it and the whole gist of the photo.

Yes agree that focus should have been on the hourglass. More DoF perhaps or even a shot taken from the side with the subject literally coming between the women?

Yo, Dennis! Long time no see

I agree with the rest about focusing more on the hourglass. Your message didn't really get across to me cos the face of the tired woman stood out so much that the theme "Tired of Life" seems more appropriate ...

besides the focus issue, a bit under exposed ya and the WB is off...
