Attention in traffic...

Yes, this definitely needs to be viewed large to see what a fantastic job you have done on her expression.  I can almost feel her anxiety.  The car puts this moment into context.  Excellent candid.  It might work also in black and white.

I was yesterday sitting on a bench in the most frequent pedestrian walk, had a camera with me and did nothing! So I understood how much motivation, energy and skill these street shots take! Bravo my friend! You're doing it so well!

Best regards!

Perfect timing and composition!

Very good street photo. Regards

Yes Ruud, As usual just at the right time.

a gutsy old lady! well photographed, Ruud.

Great capture of the moment!

well captured expression and well composed - the car seeming to threaten her from the back is a big plus.

As a cyclist you are often in defense in a traffic designed and dominated by cars and trucks.

cheers, Wolfgang

Ruud,

  Wonderful capture with a priceless expression.  Take care, Patsy

Your attention to the world is very particular!

Thats a scene of importance: we becoming older too and ... BR JV

Eternal Spring, love it, well done, Ruud. Regards.

I have a question:  How many hours do you spend out in the street to get these marvelous shots?  Great shot, as always!  Regards, Engela

I would not get in her way.  Ever. 

A classic "Ruud Style" photo. Your signature in every single pixel. I enjoy it a lot because the false "peaceful street woman" idea when one take candid captures. The disturbing strenght of character of the lady is the axis of the composition. 

 Caught at right time...well composed shot with fantastic colours & details as usual.

My best regards.

Engela: I'm walking 2 a 3 hours...

She sure is a brave soul at her age....great shot  Ruud.

Kind regards, Gail

She's mad at you Ruud. Do you have a black eye?

The yearly number of wounded cyclists is rising due to the elderly people.  your picture shows that it is difficult for them in modern traffic. groeten, Hans

Ruud, she seems to be cautious  and attentive to what is ahead of her. As always your attention to detail is perfect.
