Nice shot Paul, even when having to increase exposure.

I will never understand why a  bicyclist will ride with ear buds in  
their ears. I strongly feel a cyclist needs their ears for hearing the  
traffic around them and especially what might be behind them.

Lucky me, never got to notice that translation...

Stranger gets me a negative content Outsider lacks. I felt no dark

Thanks, Luiz.

I was actually considering that, but I thought it might be a little
too "Camus" (in many countries, including Canada, the title to his
first novel, L'Etranger, is translated into English as "The Outsider".
 (I understand that in the US it's usually translated literally as
"The Stranger").

Thanks for the comment!

cheers,
frank

I didn't time anything, the kids did.

;-)

I actually cropped quite a bit off the left.  For some reason I
thought I wanted a bit of space behind the boy (I don't know why, it
just felt that way).  I'll try a crop and see how it feels.

Thanks for the kind words, and thanks to Godfrey, Bill, Dario and Jack
for looking and commenting.

cheers,
frank

The title works very well. I don't think you could have timed this any

Re: PESO - Eye Contact

2009-04-27 Thread Dario Bonazza

Hey, there's truly something in this picture!
The eye contact, the different hair, clothing and stance of the young girls 
(have you noticed how the one on the far lefts stands out of the crowd?) and 
all the rest raise a lot of questions, so the picture asks for prolonged 
attention. I believe that questions are often more important than answers, 
and this picture is an excellent example of that.

Very well spotted Frank! The title isn't bad either.

Dario
