I like the light coming through from the front of the man. Good choice on DOF as the people in the background blend together.

こんにちは。
写真もですが、タイトルもいいですねぇ。このご老人はこの後どうしたんでしょう、気になります。。

I like your street-shots!! Ciao from Italy

i like the resigned slump to his shoulders: he's going to get wet and uncomfortable and he knows it!

He looks like the kind of guy that would say, "Thant's because umbrellas are for sissies. A little rain never hurt anyone."

It' been a couple of months since I've been to your site. you're still doing great work - well done.

He looks like he's contemplating a run for it. Nice image.

or maybe he wants to enjoy the rain

It's a very atmospheric shot. Your caption explained a lot. The droopy pose of the man without an umbrella contrasted strongly with the rushing crowd, and that created a very interesting juxtaposition.

awesome shot. It's funny because without seeing his face, he seems sad and envious of the others with umbrellas.

Great shot!

I love the focus, how my eyes drift from the infocus to the out of focus and back again when I catch myself.
Awsome shot!
