Dusk
Dusk. Says it all really - OR - you could write a novel about this scene, couldn't you? Who are they? What's their relationship? Where do they come from? What are their lives? Are they happy, sad? ... and on and on and on...
I think to write a novel about the scene would depend upon the faces of the people in the picture. Their longing for home - which is what the raw picture reminds me of - would make a good novel.
How could they not be happy? They are both young, healthy (we assume) and they share this special moment in this special place at this magical time of the day...
What a delight to happen upon this photo blog, I think they just met and having that delightful conversation. She'll take a picture and I wonder what the future has in store :)
Jilly, your questions are interesting because I thought the same thing before I read your comments. I like the compostion.

They've been together for a while. Sitting apart, looking off in different directions. The camera between them -- a getaway for the weekend?

Nice shot...and good questions...
ReplyDeleteAnswering to your question about breakfast some days ago there is only one rooster and many chickens...as well in real life ;-)
Sorry to answer so late...
It is nice shot, and quite interesting narattive.
ReplyDeleteI really like a photo of lots of possible stories. Nice shot indeed!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful shot of your city--and what well-formed composition.
ReplyDeleteA serene moment...they seem to be looking at perhaps a ship on the horizon.
ReplyDeleteThey missed their bus to the airport and decided to stay indefinitely and start blogging! ;)
ReplyDeleteYes. I love watching people and imagining their "stories".
ReplyDeleteYou and I both, Sally! I wonder if they were aware that you took a photo of them.

Or, they could be breaking up ;-)))
They are wondering if anyone has ever swum across all the way to Africa?
ReplyDeleteMaybe they are expats like me - thinking of home across the water????
ReplyDeleteThese are my lover's and my shadows - trying to figure out how to get there for real and stay forever. How did your camera catch it?
ReplyDeleteVery nice composition Jilly !
