Oh, I thought that with "your store" you referred to a store at that place, Saad! But nonetheless, be it there or anywhere else, I wait for your next steps of images in peak times.
Cheers!

Yes, I know what you are talking about, Saad. When you don't want the people the are all in the viewfinder, and when you want them they go away. ;-)
But, do you have your own store there too? It must be fascinating!!!
Wish you good luck for the shot!
Cheers!

50 meters uin 5 minutes... What a great, vivid, pulsating space! The very best for photography, exactly *because* it is so real! (The difficulties that the photographer has are of course negligible! ;-))
I would only be glad to see such a documentation of real people on images, human beings, like me and you, living their everyday lives there, Saad! But take your time also, and don't be stomped to the ground by that pure, unbounded life, while you are shooting, ey? ;-)
Well, don't take it as too "insane" from me. I just like that giving and taking, living and letting live, meeting and going away, harmonizing and disharmonizing of all that which makes up for a real human life. I could stand there and watch all all those sympathetic guys for hours and hours.
Cheers!

If this is the minimum number then that place must be an explosion of life itself!
Saad, if I may ask you, could you perhaps make some more of that pulsating place?
Cheers!

This one has again an excellent, vivid light on it, Saad. The perspective is such that in combination woth the light the depth seems to be vanishing into exactly this light, but still retains the great details of the structure and architecture.
The only problem here are the cut people in the front. I don't know of there is some time of the day when less people are there, but under such a crowd one can't do much differently. Still of course the sense for depth is strong here.
Cheers!
Nick

Faces of those who shop and those who pass.. and those who pose. I wish, in a silly way, I could sit here in the middle of a strange land... and talk and laugh with the people who may not understand my country. Maybe, I could bring some human saneness to the place... maybe after a few hours these people would say, "Americans are not always strange... there is Jimmie... he is OK." Just doing my part in making the world love and live together.

Excellent, POV, Saad, also appreciate this presentation and its architectural value! I don’t worry of minor corrections I personally see great possibilities and richness of element s can be isolated separately …I think that’s the challenge short to speak it’s a great one! Example the doom and its peripherals those shapes are very invading can become a fascinated series of abstracts. That’s why photography is a fascination to me; all those opportunities are presented by anyone but can only be absorbed with the one who opens to it. That’s why minor things can hung anyone upside down unable to see what really can make it out of these values …and its here :)
Thank you for sharing!!!
Harry

well spotted Garry,and yes you are right about this fact,the capital of Syria is too much opened upon itself,and upon others,in Aleppo you will face the reverse,if you direct the camera towards some people ,you will find most of them have turned their heads back,one more thing ,
I haven't noticed that face until you mentioned it,
my best wishes,
Saad.

This is an impressive image Saad. Good range of tones and you've given us an idea of just how big this place is. I notice that Syrians aren't as bothered by having their photograph taken as Moroccans. The face in the bottom left corner is interesting, like a ghost in the frame.
