Street Shot - Communication (3 examples) "get pushed" challange

Notice the 3 couples in this shot.

1) The couple in the front not talking to each other but clearly arrived there together, but their attention is somewhere else. (Obviously this shot doesn't tell the complete story.)

2) Then look at the couple upper left - engaged in a conversation, a bit of a distance between them, casual acquaintances of some sort.

3) Look at the top right - very intense eye contact, I want you to hear what I have to say to you and not be distracted by anything else message. I feel as if he is about to pop the question - maybe.

This was for the "Get Pushed" challenge. Sophie challenged me to do "street photography". She said I could do one character or a group of people.
This was so much fun and I needed to get pushed a bit to do street photography. I loved it and will do much more of it. Thank you Sophie for the challenge!!!

Exceellent description of what's going on here. I love it.

[Livia]

Very cool shot for the challenge. I'd say you've passed with flying colors! 8)

[Mags]

Now this is one very cool selective color composition! Great job, Kathy!

[Sophie]

Great job Kathy!! I love how you have played with the colors on the 3 couples, and the theme of communication!!! I love it!

I loved the first shot you had loaded too, but this one go further (hope it's the right expression...)
I'm very happy that you have loved this challenge!! I know that it was a "double-challenge" for you, because you had to go out of your town, and I am very happy you did it!!! :D

[jerry plume]

This is fun! I love the SC!

[Deb]

Excellent job for the challenge! There is so much to look at, which you pointed out for us !

[Wendy Bowden]

Very creative with the selective colour, fabulous capture of the couples

[Monika]

Haha awesome. I love what you've done here and the selective colouring works really well here.

[Harry J Benson]

excellent presentation - instant fav; like how you processed it and the explanations. The couple in the front are married (happily) to each other - same wedding rings, and even though their attention is elsewhere they are leaning towards each other.

[katy]

I would say you nailed this one! Fantastic capture!

[Rick Schies]

I like the lady on the left in jeans, very expressive

[Kerri]

Really cool street shot

[Kimmi]

Very nicely done

[Gabrielle C]

Love how you did this. Great capture of three very different scenarios - each of their expressions telling a story. Super job!

[Linda Lorraine]

Wow - you got a lot here. Great job!

[Marg Jorgensen]

This is such a great "story" shot. Well spotted!

[Robyn]

Awespme capture of the stages of love and relationships!

[Debra]

I like your assessments of the siturations. Another reason that I didn't join this challenge. I feel invasive doing street photography. I really don't think I could get over it...also, I have often wondered why I would want photos of a bunch of people that I don't even know.
