Hand Talk

Candid shot made inside a coffee shop. I think the image shows how

people talk with their hands.

It's a pleasure to be the first to comment!

 

Nice capture, Howard. The positioning of the hand of the background woman is what makes this shot IMO. In Belgium, when you point to your eye and say "Mon oeil" it means you don't believe a word of what's being said! That fits the rest of the scene wonderfully.

Nice Candid, Howard. Decent tones too.

Simply too good. The idea is put across so vividly. The animated expression of the lady on the left in contrast to the observant nature of the other is well captured. 7/7

Nice silent dialogue between the two( or maybe some more unseen..), and between the image and the viewer...well done. Pnina

Very good candid, Howard. I think that this photo show us her personality well. B&W is a solid choice for this. ^_^

Glad to see the lady in the midground is extending her index and not middle finger! That would tell quite a different story. Nice capture, Howard.

Nicely captured at the right instant. Your intuition of "when to take the picutre" is excellent. Nicely composed too!

Howard,this image is eloquent about the freshness of approach and your skill as photographer.Very suggestive in B&W.

Howard, ditto all of the above! This is a stunning capture. So animated! Are these people that you know? If not, it makes the shot all the more extraordinary.

Thank you all for your comments. I do not know these ladies. This was 100% candid and they never knew they were photographed.

You are the master of candids! Very animated lady in the foreground, contrasting nicely with the more calm one in the background. The talker and the listener.

A master of candids, yes! You have a couple of wonderful pictures of women in conversation. That's a wonderful capture that you've got here!

Hello Howard, let me pick this to congrat you to your portfolio! A lot of the monochrome are very very fine and will lead me to do more B&W again. As I moved form analogue to digital - B&W is still a problem for me and I would ask you to tell us a little how YOU convert to B&W. I received a lot helpfull hints here on PNET already but I`m still not fine with my output. As you use the same toy as I you may have hint.

This is lovely as well. Everything about it, the mood, the lighting, the energy. Great job!!
