"Hey, Did You See That?" by taffy

"Hey, Did You See That?"

It was a very dreary day in Chicago, quite a contrast to yesterday's spring-like weather. I decided a photowalk to capture the low-hanging fog would be fun, but in the end, it was a bust. On the way back, I passed this pair and did a doubletake -- both human and dog were sitting on the low wall and as I watched, they would consistently look in the same direction. I only had my wide angle, so had to do some serious cropping, but had fun with this scene.

Wonderful shot! I like how the dog is sitting just like his person. Dog and human must be in perfect sync. Nice in B&W.

Oh that is such a funny sight. Love your title - it fits perfectly. Either of the two other people could be the topic of their conversation.

This makes me smile, love the dog sitting on the wall with it's human. Nice light along the right side while the rest of the photo captures the dreary
atmosphere

@kiwinanna Thanks! I thought the two figures came into the frame at the perfect time -- it was definitely a lucky shot!
January 23rd, 2017  
That's so funny! It's late and guess I'm tired because I didn't even notice that dog was sitting on the wall! Terrific candid shot!

Great candid shot
January 23rd, 2017  
I love it! People do say dogs start to look like their owners. This one obviously can't mimic the long blonde hair, but they can look the same way ;) Lots of fun.
January 23rd, 2017  
Love this type of candid street/urban photography, great capture
January 23rd, 2017  
A super candid capture. Fav!! πŸ˜€
January 23rd, 2017  
Definitely fun. So perfectly aligned.
January 23rd, 2017  
Love the processing

January 23rd, 2017  
Ha Ha what a funny way for a dog to sit!
Love the processing Taffy!
January 23rd, 2017  
Fun. What a good eye, Taffy!
January 24th, 2017  
I like how the lighter cement and the line of it bring the eye right to the focus of the shot
January 24th, 2017  
So much to like about this. The way the dog's sitting, the fact that both of them are looking to the right and the figure of their attention. Strong fav
January 24th, 2017  
Nice street candid. We had stunning day after yesterday's dreary one. I wonder what tomorrow will bring for us???
January 24th, 2017  
@tonydebont Thanks Tony, those are all the things I'd liked about the scene and why I went for it despite only having my wide angle.
January 24th, 2017  
Fantastic street shot and excellent in b&w.
January 24th, 2017  
Lovely, how everyone is looking to "camera right." Who knew, that a doggie could sit on a wall? Super composition.
January 24th, 2017  
Fantastic timing! Love the title!
January 24th, 2017  
That's hilarious. Our dog will sit on your lap like that and she's quite a big dog!
January 24th, 2017  
Lee
Brilliant, great timing and shot.
January 25th, 2017  
So delightful, I love this Taffy!!!
January 25th, 2017  
@shepherdmanswife Ours used to as well, and she weighed 90 pounds in her prime. I so miss that!
January 25th, 2017  
Perhaps they were waiting for someone. Great b&w candid
January 25th, 2017  
The first thing I noticed was the girl watching the man in the distance...but then that dog!!! Sitting on the wall!!! Wonderful capture and I'd never have seen this were it not for Flashback Fridays!
