people on steps watching other people

there are times when you're only gifted with one chance to photograph something. like when you're on a tour boat and people around you are agog over taking photos. which means when you see a photo opp that you know you only have one chance to shoot, you just seize that opportunity. this i had to jostle my way as the previous shot have people's head all over.

i like photographing this kind of view -- people doing whatever it is they're doing, oblivious of others around them or if people are taking their photos. the different body language, the different colours of their clothes, the grouping -- in two's, three's and the solo ones. this is my kind of street photography.

when processing this (from raw) i was confused when i thought i was also in the photo, but i was sure i took the photo myself from the boat so that lone woman on the lower left with white hair, big sunglasses and big legs could not have been me! but perhaps it was my doppelganger?

five days and the album cover challenge will end. there's not a lot of participation so this just might be it for this challenge. it will probably die a natural death, and unless you don't want to see this challenge go, i'd like to beg and grovel for you to put in an entry or two, it would be much appreciated. here's the low down: https://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/42392/album-cover-challenge-108-is-on
