Its a social club among neigborhood. Every month they gathered, talking about neighbor watch and anything, including gossiping. Sometimes i said the gathering become as a "Club of the Heaven", hard to believe what they gossip like they know anything.

I like the graininess of your photo so much, Hantu!
The framing is somehow uncomfortable but interesting.
I like the POS too.
The composition is a little blurred. I think the man who looks like biting an apple ;) is the guilty here.
I'd like the photo better without him in the frame.
However the B/W and tonal range is just great here!
Well done!

An excellent shot and a very lively slice of life that I will forward to my favs, even though I think grain has been enhanced too much this time...

I like the cropped bodies of the two women gossiping -perhaps- about he guy who's walking through the image. I don't know why but thi simage rather has a south or central american feelin. I cannot figure it in Indonesia....

You've hit a jackpot here. The composition is soo good. It is very candid with smart composition.

Now that is a story. What could they be saying? The angle is great, brings out the real life scene. The grain also fits the mood.

Man, you do real magic with B&W. This is just excellent. I really like the compo with the figure out way in the background and the two women sitting and talking. The grain is wonderful as well. Nothing to nit pick here. Great work!

Once again i like your POV Hantu. I like the "ordinary day" type of feeling you have in your shots. I'm starting to wonder...should i try something like this too, and see what comes out of it. I find your picture very intresting and inspiring.

Excellent mood and composition. I love the black and white treatment and the grain. Well done.
