Photograph of four cooks working the pass in a restaurant kitchen at service, plating three dishes at once, several hands in frame and some of them overlapping. One cook partly hidden behind another, steam rising into hard overhead light, each face clearly a different person.

Photograph of a busy pedestrian crossing at midday, roughly twenty people walking in both directions, each face clearly a different person, some looking at phones and some talking. Shot from the far kerb at eye level, sharp from front to back, ordinary daylight.

Photograph of a basketball game in a public park at the moment of a layup, one player in the air with the ball leaving the fingertips, two defenders with arms up, feet visibly off the ground. Fast shutter freezing every limb, long shadows, chain-link fence behind.
