Street look from different countries are always interesting. It really shows the lifestyle and setting of the region.

I like the tram and the B&W at the end, but I'd crop them slightly.

Great area to take a walk-a-bout! Have done so many a times. Great area for art, music, drinking, did I say drinking?

Nices shots!

This is true roentarre, however this is one micro small part of this region and it would take thousands of photos to accurately represent the region as there are so so many different looks you can get and many different lifestyles...

I very much like the street car and water meter images - I'd say you are in your element. Good job.

I like pictures from the streets of cities. The first and third pictures are especially good where interesting subject and a prospect is visible .

You did well, imo. Great shots, even the selective colour shots look quite natural, which is difficult to achieve, I think!
