A nice surprise by judithg

A nice surprise

It's not everyday that somebody so beautiful wanders into your shot! I was taking various pictures of the St John's gatehouse with people silhouetted against the light, or peering through the door, when out walked this girl, still smiling from the conversation she'd been having in the Porters' Lodge. Well it would have been a crime not to take the shot and Adam is rather pleased that I did!
She is beautiful and adds so much to the photo!

A stunning apparition !!! She looks gorgeous but where does she think she is, the Mediterranean ? Where are her coat & gloves, must be much warmer down your way than here !! This could be the start of a modelling career !

Looks like an African fabric. Fantastic shot. Are you just lucky with the people who walk into your pictures or do you wait for the right person to come along? In any case you certainly have a photographer's eye.
May 14th, 2012  
@busylady Well sometimes I wait for somebody to come and get ready but in this case a very tall and elegant silhouette appeared and I just held on to a straining dog until she emerged - I couldn't believe the radiant smile!
May 14th, 2012
