Opportunist photography, saw the scene, tried to be as discreet with the Mamiya as I could......not an easy thing to do.
Bit lame, subjects are unrelated, but its all about the illusion.
May I ask you how you got those clouds? You indicate no filtration.
That said, I would have opted for a bit more contrast, while still preserving the solemnity and peacefulness of the scene. The placement of objects was very well thought out and the picture evinces a sense of calm. - David Lyga
Thanks for the nice coments.
The lady was waiting for her fellow, had a small dog with the lead wrapped around her. Was probably trying to avoid eye contact with the weird old dude with an oversized camcorder looking thingy.
Just a bit of cloud darkening with digital software and a little dodging of the lady David. Probably should of spent a few more minutes and done a better job of it.
Need to experiment more with filters, but from what I have done, you fix one problem and create another.
I enjoy the challenge of creating a shot on the fly when it appears, not easy when you only have a split second to think.
