Favorites from San Miguel: 6

Lynne Robinson, Hewitt, New Jersey

I don’t normally take photos of people but this woman selling flowers spoke to me. I like the shallower depth of field allowing the focus to be on her, yet the man across the street adds additional interest.

Comments:

Great shot, the depth of field is excellent!

this is really good lynne, I like it too.
the lighting is great - also the bucket, against the orange wall in the background.

i’d love to take more pictures of people - I’m always a bit hesitant…

Thanks Margaret!

Letty, I find that when I have the zoom lens on my camera I can sneak up on people without their knowledge. They don’t really know where my camera is aimed; I could be taking a photo of almost anything—including them!

Excellent photo! The composition and lighting are perfect. The orange bucket and flowers tie it all together.
