Writing from Japan. The first 2 are from Manila and the last from Japan

#1 says alone to me more than the other two.

For me, #2 definitely has an "alone in my thoughts" feeling. #1 would be better I think if the colour of the water was more saturated or vivid.

You may be right but as a photo I just don't think it does it. :(

I agree on both counts. In Manila the pollution haze just does not go away except after a heavy rain. The water that guy is fishing in is so polluted with human waste that I was unable to come closer than about 10 feet from him before gagging set in. It is horrible that people are eating the fish.

Funny that no one seems to get off on #3 .... She is alone but looking to be together with someone from her body language.

Two more shots... call them #4 and #5 when commenting. Both are from Manila.

A tough life alone.

My favorite of them is number 2, although I have no Idea how it would perform in the challenge. I am a poor judge of that, but number 2 has more emotional impact than the rest as far as I am concerned.

Looks like the cat barely missed beeing luck, his tail is missing.
