Boulevard Henri IV, 17:09, a photo from Ile-de-France, North

Photographer's Note

Parigi - Marche des Fiert駸 2012.
un altro "momento" in b/n piu' avanti nel percorso, di nuovo lungo il Boulevard Henri IV.
non so se i due signori della foto si conoscessero, ad ogni modo la loro conversazione era animata e amichevole allo stesso tempo. cosi diversi, nell'aspetto e nella gestualita', l'accostamento aveva attirato la mia attenzione. anche se devo confessare che la minigonna del signore con il cappellino aveva fatto girare non poche teste ;)

Paris - Marche des Fiert駸 2012.
another b/w moment further down the route, again along the Boulevard Henri IV.
I don't know if the two gentlemen in the photo knew each other but they seemed to have a lively and friendly conversation. they looked so different, their clothes, their body language, that I spent a few minutes observing them. although I was not the only one - especially the man on the left, in his black miniskirt, had caused a few heads to turn ;)

Both models are interesting, and I especially liked the expression of the one on the right, he seems so lost in the conversation.

What about cropping it � la portrait mode so that the two stand out?

TFS.

Ciao.

Hi Cristina

Another live street scene, and the look of the woman behind them is focusing our attention on this strange couple chatting. Of course, the person at left (you have wrongly written right) is THE subject.
Cheers from cloudy and cold Bordeaux.

Ciao Cristina,
a rather strange snapshot with all these people to are the main 'actors' of the scene.I like the created poses as the light and the colour management of the image.

Have a good afternoon,Danos

Ciao Cristina
questa � senz'altro, finora, la foto pi� curiosa. Un p� di sapore di commedia all'italiana mescolato all'eleganza francese. bellissimo il gioco di sguardi dei tre, A che guarda B che per� non guarda C. L'espressione del duetto � davvero sopra ogni aspettativa. Brava davvero. B/N sempre bello che te lo invidio un casino, ma te lo dico solo ogni tanto: taccio per pudore, e per farti credere che neanche ne avevo notato la bellezza ;-)
ciao
Simonetta

Hello Cristina,
what a curious and eloquent scene! I like it very much! the moment was captured excellently. I wonder what these two may be talking about?.. I even don't mind this image being a b&w version LOL

I like this photo (like all yours) because it gives us some food for thought, it makes us (or at least me!) imagine something... imagine the dialogue, imagine the whole atmosphere of the place... and wish I was there shooting photos as well! LOL
warmest greetings from Moscow (where such a march would be an impossible event!)
Elena
PS. sorry I haven't responded to your reply yet. I was a bit busy with work.. Will do so now, if you don't mind :)
