A tribute thread to the many who wave and greet me as they pass while I'm taking their picture!
Especially young people are often alert and like the attention.
"Peace" - don't see that very often here in Copenhagen. But in Japan the peace sign is almost ubiquitous whenever you take a portrait or group shot.
It happens that people wave for my attention to make sure I get their picture.
I do get the occasional signal or request not to take someone's picture. Fortunately, there's enough happy people to go around.
Happy Cycling!

Nice series. Thank you.
There are many (really many) affable and congenial people in all the countries I've visited esp. among the (so-called)'proletriat' bicyclists (and notably in Asia and east Europe)

ooops ... 'proletriat'= 'proletariat' ....am punishing my refractory fingers.

Check out this Mads Bjorn music video with vintage black/white footage of Copenhagen circa 1930-1940s: loads of chic bike riders!
*raises hand* hey there!
Great photos ;)
