Taken very early in the morning a few days a go. I was on my way to do some bird photography when I spotted these guys having a good ol' natter, couldn't resist capturing the moment.

It's a great candid of modern life, indeed of any era.

Wonderful image, Paul

Thank you!
I really like this image & I'm pleased with the way it turned out, the early morning sun really brings out the colour of the old granite sea wall.

Love it. I don't think you couldhave posed it any better. Excellent Capture! Have you thought of trying it in black and white? Would make it more timeless.

I really like this shot Paul. The horizontal lines are nice and straight!
But more over it seems like that's what I'll be like when I'm there age. Gives a good sense of being human.

I have tried converting it to B&W but didn't like it as much, thanks for the suggestion though.

I'm new at Photoshop and saw this as an opportunity to learn a few things. I hope you don't mind. I desaturated and played with unsharp mask. Pretty much my skills at this point. LOL

I think your right, color is better. Your photo makes me smile.

Dawn, thanks for your thoughts on my fishermen shot. However you may want to take note of instruction number 8 listed on the following forum guidelines....

Best wishes,

Paul

Would be really interesting to see it in BW. Looks like the perfect shot for monochrome.

I prefer the colour version but that may change when I see the printed versions. Anyway here it is in b&w....

I also prefer the color version. It better portrays the warmth of the fellowship being shared by these gentlemen.


Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:

Paul - again, I apologize for duplicating your photo without your permission. Again, I stated I took the opportunity to learn something regarding photoshop and assumed you wouldn't mind since somebody else was wondering the same as I, what would B/W look like?

Apparently, this did bother you as the suggestion was posted right after I deleted my version.

My bad for not asking and I hope you understand.
