Cambridge spy by judithg

Cambridge spy

She spied me spying on her. Had to crop in quite close because some totally inconsiderate people walked by - didn't they know I had 'a shot on'. I can't wok out the reflection - it would be better without but I don't know how much it bothers me - I had others without but she wasn't giving me those eyes. I missed the 'One night stand' challenge yesterday so I'm going with B&W and 'candid' in one shot. This is the corner window at Fitzbillies - I've posted a shot from the other side before.

Three good things:
1. Much better day for Adam though he still sounds pretty terrible.
2. Two nice American ladies who I thought were admiring the view were actually waiting for a chat with Monty.
3. There is a 'bicycle' thread - woohoo!
Some madness in Extras.... http://365project.org/judithg/extras/2013-01-08
The reflection makes the shot. I like it.

@fueast OK so I've Googled!

@judithg You've heard of Warhol right?
January 8th, 2013  
@fueast Hahaha. Who?

this is great...x

I like the reflection. It gives it perspective.
Her expression is fab though. She looks so vulnerable.
January 8th, 2013  
Ha ha! But she doesn't look amused!
January 8th, 2013  
Oh, courageous you! Quite a beauty and I love her expression!
January 8th, 2013  
She looks slightly terrified, and how apt that the reflection is someone taking a photo! Love this shot!
January 8th, 2013  
I don't think she's quite looking at you, more a look of contemplation. I think the reflection on the right of her hair looks like a dog's back, and he's wearing a jacket!!
January 8th, 2013  
She looks like a movie star- expressive eyes!
January 8th, 2013  
How intriguing! what a fabulous shot!
January 8th, 2013  
Love the eyes
January 8th, 2013  
Awesome capture! I think the reflection really makes this shot great! Selfie?
January 8th, 2013  
This is amazing!
January 8th, 2013  
Oooh cool snap!
January 8th, 2013  
phwoar sorry i mean what a lovely shot :) good spy i reakon

I quite like the reflection as well, she looks unhappy though! I looked at the bicycle and was browsing down just looking at the shots and I went 'wait a min, this has to be Judith's' and it was !!! I know your work without seeing your name, how cool is that..

@ditto44 And about 20 I reckon!! Same sex romance all over the flipping place in Cambridge this afternoon. A bit of sunshine and there's flouncing around willy nilly.
January 8th, 2013  
@orangecrush Not me for once - in fact I can't quite work out where the reflectee was - possible taking a photo in my direction!
January 8th, 2013  
@cookie123 I've posted too many!!
January 8th, 2013  
Wings coming out of her head? Though she looks as if she's giving you an evil eye
January 8th, 2013  
@jgpittenger Yes I thought there was a sort of angel vibe - but she's looking stressed bless her. Can you see the fabulous laptop cover - in the other photos you could see it much better - I nearly stuck with colour for it.

a wonderful shot judith, love the monochrome and it is very 'reportage', almost retro 60's to with the textures and tones....your reflection is somebody in a woolly hat and gloves either taking a picture (spookie) or writing something on a wall or reading a timetable !!!
January 8th, 2013  
@judithg I can see why!
January 8th, 2013  
really like this - great capture:-)
January 8th, 2013  
awesome photo. well done
January 8th, 2013  
Great expression and shot
January 8th, 2013  
Were you wearing hat and gloves whilst 365ing?
She looks a tad grumpy!
January 8th, 2013  
@ruthmouch Not me! I had a long lens :0) still pretty obvious I was pointing it at her....
January 8th, 2013  
Nice capture... and the glass reflection over her face adds to this I think
January 8th, 2013  
I love this picture - definitely a story behind that expression - existential angst, all-night essay-writing and a doomed romance I wonder?
January 8th, 2013  
I don't think she's looking at you - I think she is thinking about what she is going to write! Its a great photo!
January 8th, 2013  
I too like the reflection, catches the eye, city chic
January 9th, 2013  
This is a fantastic shot!
January 9th, 2013  
I just want to say that I keep thinking of this picture! My Get Pushed challenge is Street Photography, and I'm just hoping to catch something this authentic. so very well done.
January 9th, 2013  
Fantastic capture, Hope Adams better soon have you tried glycerin honey lemon whisky as a hot toddy
January 9th, 2013  
The reflection is good. It looks like her 'aura' floating around her (I'm really not into all that airy fairy flim-flam btw!) xx
January 9th, 2013  
very cool capture Judith and don't you hate when random peeps get in the way!
January 10th, 2013  
@lindseying Thank you :0)
January 10th, 2013  
the reflection sorts of makes it I think - it has a haunting feel to it - but I really like it....nicely done Mrs!
January 10th, 2013  
Oh, my, Judith ~ looks like she's sending a 'workup' on you back to Headquarters, wherever that might be... :)
Excellent and dramatic shot!
January 11th, 2013  
Great look
January 11th, 2013  
Oh i love this shot! the reflections in the glass just make it all the more interesting!
January 13th, 2013  
i think it's funny that the reflection is of somebody taking a photo!! Cool capture, i like how she is giving you those eyes:)
