keep walking ... walking away ... away from me

______________________________________________
a more or less accidental shot ... I was considering shooting when this young man stepped in ... he was walking so fast that I had to click in a hurry ... no time left for a second one ... he was already too far away ...
if I had the chance to start it over ... I think I would go for another POV as here i cut for instance the right corner of the wooden bridge ... but thought far from perfect I do like it this way ...
as to PP … shooted in colour and converted to B&W, adjusted contrast and framed.
a second version in WS …
looking forward to reading what do you think about it ...

Hi Ilianna, ( very beautiful name)
I like the simplicity in this shot. Very well composed.
Bravo.

This b&w version is by far the better one of the two, Ιλιάννα. Did you add the grain ? It's not really disturbing in this version, but it is in the desaturated one. Ah well, that's just my opinion.
TFS.
Next time, just call out to the guy. As I know Greek men, they always stop and turn their heads when a woman calls out ;o)). It would have bought you time for a second shot!

I like it, Ili! Next time, shoot when he (or someone else) is a bit further away. You found a great set-up for this kind of shots. I like your conversion here, the grain works very well! The light is a bit too harsh, you should visit this in late afternoon (just an idea).
you did well, Ili!!
M:))

Szia Ili, It's good to see you're posting again! :)
I really like the grainy B/W here! well done!
cheers
ToM :)

This one is better. I think you were lucky that this guy came up. Otherwise the shot would have been good, but would have lacked zing.

Well, you should have whistled and winked. I bet he would have stopped ... and ruined the photo-op! This way you were both at ease and its clearly visible in the mood displayed.

Great composition. Horizon is well and proportionally used to cover the emptyness on the right. I like the dreamy atmosphere of the whole scene.
