Communications

Another shot taken in Bristol during our recent week away.
I processed this yesterday because I've been at our annual college class' re-union bunfight today. Next year we'll be celebrating completing our course forty years ago. Oh, boy!
Hope the weekend's going well.

Edit. Cropped tighter on-site following a suggestion from @rachelwithey. Thank you to her for the idea.

Smashing shot. Two forms of communication too. Writing and telephoning

[Rosie Kind]

Nice shot - she does look a bit miserable but this is a natural shot which is better than a posed one.

[8yearson]

Great candid Alison... She does look very solemn in her thoughts!

[Maggiemae]

I wonder if she is drawing! Nice clear shot!

[carol white]

Great candid capture and title!!

[Claire]

This is so fabulous, excellent candid! Love her thoughtful expression

[Christine]

Nice capture

[Rachel Withey]

Great candid shot. Would look great with a tight crop as well I think.

[Lisa Stein]

Wonderfully seen and captured! You have such a great eye!

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

@rachelwithey Thank you, great idea - I've cropped some off the left hand side and I think the woman with the phone is a bit more prominent now. I don't want to go any tighter because I'd intended her as part of the idea of the shot = different ways of communicating
Sorry,should have said on first try at replying : I'm guessing you meant tighter than this though?

[Rachel Withey]

I had been thinking tighter but actually this works really, really well - I love it. The woman on the phone is much more obvious now - really well composed.

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

@rachelwithey Many thanks, you've been a real help.

[Margaret Brown]

Lovely candid capture!

[Gena Pegg]

I was also thinking about the two forms of communication. Great candid shot. She does look deep in thought! Nicely done.

[Dione Giorgio]

Gorgeous candid capture, Alison.

[Jen Hudson]

Great candid. Love the sharp focus on her and capture of her expression, I think she is just thinking. Like the pull of the two communicating women in their different styles. Extra bonus, the van in the background has your surname oiy.

[Jen Hudson]

@jennywren Not oly, but on it!

[Kazzy]

Interesting candid...she has been caught up in thought. I like this crop...lots of nice elements to explore after viewing your main subject :)

[Gayanne Campbell]

Winsome shot! Love the colors, lighting, textures, it's such a candid shot of life. The one writing and one talking on the phone.

[Al Bailey]

Super candid shot :)

[Carole Imes]

Wonderful candid of this thoughtful lady and how cool you were able to capture two different lifestyles in one shot.

[👑 AnaZad]

Very interesting capture. Contrast of tso cultures.

[Hamble]

Great shot. Good title! Well taken.

[Sharon Lee]

nicely done, I love the guy on his mobile.
