streetshot

Hi Wim.

      I would say I normally don't comment on street shots, but your's really grabbed my eye.  By breaking a rule or two you've created a great image here.    My first thought was that the two guys were what made this an interesting shot, and that's why I wondered why you were letting them leave the frame. But when I realized it was all about the hidden looks at these two.  Great capture, well thought-out and just plain Supercool!  Very thought provoking. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks you Douglas.

Yes you right, it is all about the hidden looks not about the too persons.

This is for me a great shot and I'd like to quote from Robin F Pendergast who wrote:"One instrumental aspect of communicating through a camera lens is being able to use photography as not only art, but also as social commentary. A good photographer first observes and investigates and then shoots, albeit quickly because the “perfect” shot is often fleeting." (Photography as Social Commentary 2002)

Says it all

Regards, Peter

Wonderful , Great capture . The women behind got my attention .

BTW - I loved what Peter wrote

Great shot !! so much to look at lol!!!

Henri Cartier-Bresson is what comes to mind with this shot; a well executed "Decisive Moment". I would be interested to see what this looks like in black and white, the photo is a bit cluttered, but this is necessary to capture the looks of the people.

Judging by the hand on the nose of the woman behind them, they stink, ha!

Best regards Wim!

Thanks Peter, I like the quote.

Thanks Alon and Andrea and Pierre.

Alex, I am a big fan off Bresson so thanks a lot. 

Hi,

I am the woman in the photo.

The reason I hold my nose is because of the urinoir and not because of the two men in front of me.

I like the picture by the way. Great shot and a good impression of Gaypride.

Thanks Angela for your comment.

I think for most people it's obvious why you hold your nose.

For people who not understand I am sorry too give the wrong impression.

Hello Wim,

I am glad I read the comments, there is so much going on in this picture.  At first I also thought why having the two men walk out of the picture. 

One extra scene in the icture is great, In the middle of the picture there is a man  checking on another while he is peeing. 

Great,

Ben

Thank you Ben.
