That is very true.  The "gringos", (interesting choice of descriptive word*), are all walking around outside and the "Chinese" are all sitting down on the inside taking their money. 

*PS- I don't find the usage offensive, just interesting.
PPS- I don't find "uglyamericans" offensive either, maybe grammatically incorrect, but not offensive.

There are photographs everywhere. It is the call of photographers to see and capture those images.

I like the image.  I think it is a good representation of the area, colorful and likely and full of gringos. But, the big but, I would crop the empty street part off the bottom.  I think the large mass of gray is like a barrier keeping the viewer at arms length from the photo.  A tighter crop would bring the viewer into the image ... making them part of the dynamics of the street. Making the viewers experience more participatory than spectator.

Thanks for the tip but I prefer it this way. I think the cars need somewhere to go and the space at the bottom does that. My opinion only, others, like you may differ.
