Mum, Can I have one? #8128

July 1st is a national holiday in Canada. Here in Montreal, Stevie Wonder gave a free concert to open the jazz festival last night. Today, the jazz festival continued with terrific music and atmosphere. Old Montreal with its cobblestones, cute stores and side-walk cafes were filled to the brim. This three wheel vehicle (made in Quebec I believe) was parked on the cobblestones of old Montreal much to the glee of the young man. I was lucky that his shirt was the same color as the vehicle. The weather was great and I took a number of candid shots - perhaps I will get the time to post one or two more. Thinking of the young man, I am trying to remember the last time I felt something like that - was it the acquisition of my D300 or was it when I first saw Star Wars and they put the ship into warp drive? Or ......? PS lens used was the sigma 10-20mm and the image is cropped.

The boy's face is a picture in itself....great shot Tony!

Tony... The young boy is reflective of all of us "boys" with our toys. A humorous, but insightful capture where we can see ourselves... almost daily :-). Come to think of it, a neckline can provoke the same look sometimes, right? Excellent shot... Mike

 

 

Right! (*_*)

Tony, it's great that you saw this situation developing and were able to catch the perfect moment! The purple of the woman's skirt contrasts well with the yellows, and I like the triangle of the three figures.

Gerry - sorry for my late response. Hope you will return to photo.net soon.
