Hello,

once again, I tried to take a picture with strong geometric elements. Here everything in the background (the walls, the street, the window, the door) moves the eye towards the right, while my subjects move towards the left. For me this "freezes" the subjects, and that is what I wanted to achieve.

EOS 350D
EF-S 17-85 at 17mm
f4, 1/1600
1600 ISO

The 1600 ISO was not intentional, I just forgot it from a previous pic, but it has an effect of flattening the image which I also like.

thank you for looking and commenting,
T.O.

I think the pic works at lots of different levels - it's super. The orange headscarf is really powerful and contrasts brilliantly with the blue not only of her clothes but the blueish cobbles....nice one.

Thank you all for your comments.

PhotoVagrant, now that I am thinking of it I should have named the picture "Love". There is the graffiti, plus the love between them two...

Regards,
T.O.
