Street Pow-Wow...

...some young folk putting the world to rights in the streets of Guèrande, Brittany this afternoon.

[Dianne]

A nicely balanced image and it looks great in b&w.

[Yeshanghai]

Grape Street shot! Love the shadows

[Taffy]

They look so relaxed and carefree -- ah, to be that age...or, not.

[Richard Sayer]

@taffy Be that age.... nooooo waaaaay. The more I look at today's world... the more pleased I am that I am old.

[Shirley]

Good shot and I like it in black and white

[Tom]

Great candid capture not easy in the bright afternoon sun.

[Graeme Stevens]

Excellent street shot

[gloria jones]

Great b&w candid...neat light, shadows, composition

[Joan]

Great candid. Good eye!

[MoyaC]

I like the relaxing feel about this. And like the shadows

[Gavin.J.Cotton]

Fab Candid shot :)

[Debs Stott]

Lots to see and wonder about... are they putting the world to rights, are they enjoying the sun, watching something? ... lovely shot

[Joan Robillard]

@taffy I so agree with Richard. But I am relatively sure that my grandparents felt the same when I was the age of these young people.
I love the way you have handled what appears to be some strong light.

[Rachel]

They look so relaxed just sitting there in the sun.

[Juan B.]

Nice street shot. A perfect example of a holiday scene when school finishes

[Francoise]

They look relaxed. But think back. Have you ever met (or been) a teenager who was actually relaxed? Doesn't happen. They have different view of time though.

[DbJ]

Love the haphazard bicycle

[Ivan]

Nice street candid, mono suits it.

[john morley]

Great street shot you must have been a fly on the wall, or the man with the longest lens in Guèrande..

[Richard Sayer]

@jack4john The Exif data will tell you that the focal length was 36mm - 54mm F/F equivalent... I was standing right where the photo starts!

[Andy]

Super capture and with some nice lighting.

[Richard Sayer]

@candidzen Fortunately the light sandy ground acted as a big reflector otherwise the lighting would have been very contrasty, especially on their faces.

[Annie D]

Beautifully casual street shot

[Margaret Obey]

Lovely street capture, I love the light.

[Margo Sayer]

This shimmers with the heat of the day..just see those crisp shadows.
