About the Image(s)
A few years back I went to Havana Cuba with National Geographic on an exchange program about people. Every morning before the scheduled program we would take a before sunrise walk through the back streets. We reached a plaza where there is a very old church. This couple of elderly women were engaged in a very friendly conversation.
The image was created with a Nikon D5 with the Nikkor zoom lens 70-200 mm f/2.8 @ 70 mm and these settings: ISO 1000, f/4 and 1/3200sec. The image was PP in LightRoom and cropped.

Everything about this photo contributes to a sweet story of human relationships of companionship and sharing. I love the casual poses of the two women, their colorful clothing, the setting, and especially the wonderful facial expressions. Posted: 01/06/2025 10:14:32
The image is candid capturing an intimate moment and rouses my curiosity about what the women are discussing. The eye level perspective brings the viewer into the intimate moment. The
The image is well composed, and cropped. The triangular shape formed by the women's bodies brings my eye to their faces. The hands and arms frame the face.
You might consider opening up the shadows so that the black clothing separates from the background. Posted: 01/09/2025 21:32:56
