Malls are places where people go shopping. I don’t like shopping at the malls. Too noisy, too much crowded, too much sterilized, too much politically correct. I do like though, observing people, collecting moments of their lives, taking pictures of them. In other words I like “street shooting”. Well ok, sometimes I also shop a little!
Merry Christmas! Καλά Χριστούγεννα!
All images taken with a 24mm (equiv.) lens, mostly at ISO800, f1.8, and speeds from 1/125 to 1/250.

Entering a Mall il like entering a different world, more similar to the ads’ one than to the real one.
As usual you captured a wide range of emotions and some great interactions between people and their surroundings!
happy 2012 to you and the wonderful GRfamily!
The GR family is FBing, playing PS or checking net messages. One member though is studying Physics. I feel for her
A great series, Stamatis. It almost feels like visiting Athens a bit … which is waht I actually like a lot about your blog in general. Happy 2012!

These are GREAT photos! I love that they capture simple, every day occurrences, but your captions point out the humor in them. Us humans are a crazy race, especially around Christmas time.
