Half a generation

A half-generation gap really shows up!

Candid shot in Paris this afternoon, M8/Nocti

Thanks for looking

Max

Great shot Max. Did you speak with the girls before hand, or was it a snap shot?

Max, excellent work.

Thank you for your appreciations.

This is a totally candid picture: I had noticed the girls and was prepared, waiting for a favorable (decisive?) moment: the girls spread in a line just when the young woman came into the frame. Only one shot, and nobody noticed me. There are so many cameras around in Paris… and shooting with a RF and both eyes open is great fun.

Max -

Excellent, and the selective focus, contrast and tonal range are all spot-on.

Thank you Stuart.

Doesn’t the scene indeed suggest a city lioness and cubs?
