Beauty of the Moment
I love taking photos on the street. I always see such beautiful moments and compositions that I could take hundreds of photos. I just still don’t have enough courage, to just start taking photos of random people. But I’m getting more self-confident, more and more :)
I took this photo last weekend in Vienna. We were eating lunch and sitting in front of a restaurant, when this girl set down by the closed door, of a near by shop. I didn’t even had to stand away from the table :)
No HDR today. This is a single photo, edited a little in Lightroom and used Cross-processing in Color Effects.
Taken with Canon 7D with Sigma 18-55mm lens, handheld.
Usually I can choose if a photo should be color or B&W, but this time I like them so much that I’m adding them both :)
Let me know which one you like more :)
WOW! You are right! Those two photos are stunning each in their own way! it’s hard for me to decide as well! B&W conveys intensity of expecting something major to occur, and the colored version gives me a feeling of a girl being happy and just taking her time to savor the moment.
Exactly :) They booth give a different feel to the situation :)
the color version for me :) much more youthful and cheerful with color …
Most of the people preferred the color version :)
Excellent capture and fantastic in colour. I wonder who she’s waiting for??
Thank you :) And from what I have seen, she was waiting for a boy :) He arrived few minutes after I took this photo.
