Two young women (students) enjoying a chat and a picnic at Newark Castle. Before I took the shot, I shouted over to the girls to let them know I was taking a photo, I told them they would be small in the frame as it was a wide angle lens.
They were both really cool about it and said it was fine. On the subject of cool, how cool and relaxed do they look.
I thought about cloning the litter bin out so you had a triangle of interest with the two windows and the bench. After cloning it out, I decided it stays as it is part of the story. I really love all the negative space and minimalistic nature of the shot
As I left the castle grounds I thanked them for the shot.
I have another shot to post tomorrow, to compliment this shot.
I don't mind the trash bin either as it is a tidy one. amazing that people are pretty good if you ask if you can photograph them. worth an ask. there is a good poetry to this image.
A lovely shot - love the light streaming in through the big window with the other objects including the girls , playing a secondary importance in the shot - love it ! fav
What a great shot. I also like the use of negative space and the minimalist approach. I actually think the tidy, interesting litter box adds to the story. Fav
