Rikugein Park, a photo from 東京, 関東

Photographer's Note

I took this picture in Rikugien Park in Komagome.
Its about 10 min from Shinjuku by Yamanote line.
Its a huge park and the place was filled with people. There were many young couples taking pictures and this young woman was being made to stand by her husband who was photographing her.

What got me interested in this picture was the little boy in the back who seems to be taking photographs too. A young budding photographer in the making.

Hope you guys like it.

Thanks Dinyar - a funny and nice pose you spotted here. I like the fine autumn colours as well.

The Young photographer a real scoop for the image (thanks for one to the theme)
and I wonder if he have seen other photographers making the same kind of shots ;-)

A beautiful portrait between the lovely autumn colours Dinyar, the little boy is indeed a excellent detail, because of its blue clothes, very placid picture, very nice composition.
Well seen!

very nice work here, I liek the pose of the two here, however it is a little too bright in some areas though, but overall, very good work

Very nice portrait in a beautiful garden. Good composition and so many autumn colors. Well seen and goes to my favorite list!

I like the intimate feeling conveyed by your picture. The light itself seems to be cautious and tries not to intrude. The women attitude has such a modesty that I feel almost indiscreet looking at the picture.

great composition, I love the interaction between this small boy and the woman, and the magic of the moment enchanced by the light.
