This image by Brian Yen is called "People people people and more people." It was taken in the busy, overcrowded streets of Hong Kong. I like the movement and stillness of the image all at the same time. The crowd of people walking causes the blurriness of so many people all in one place over time, yet the buildings and the place remains still and clear. People are constantly moving and living while the material objects around us are lifeless and stable. Pictures usually freeze a specific moment in time for the viewer to experience it forever, but this image does not freeze time it captures the notion of time and how it elapses. it is interesting to see the juxtaposition of things that move and things that remain motionless and the idea of the passing of time.
