Good Day Daniel,

Hello Draco

This brought a smile to my face. A great
candid of art immitating life. I would have cropped
a bit more. Coming in on the three subjects.
Removing non-needed pieces to get the
story. Cropping out the statue to the right,
a tighter crop on the subject. Don't need to
see as much of the painting on the wall to
show they are in a museum.

Il like the picture like it is. But thanks for your
point of view.

You don't need to get a "zoom" lens. Just
crop some when you get ready to present
the image.

Great capture and good timing.

Thanks Draco !

As I suspect that Daniel is, like most of us,
has limited funds and can not afford a
70-200mm f/2.8 or faster lens to capture the
candid moments such as this one.

I'm not limited for that reason.

Mainly I do street photography with a Leica
that cost 3x the price of a 70-200/2,8.

But if I use such a lens, people will react, and
I'll not take the same pictures !

Bonjour Daniel!
Comment ca va?
Je suis tres bien!
Just out of curiosity, have you thought about going digital? Leica is
a very expensive film camera. I sometimes use a Canonet QL 17, which
is called the "poor man's Leica". It is very discreet and
lightweight. The only downside is not having a bayonet lens. But it
is a fabulous camera.
Take care Daniel!
Helen

Yes.....I like it too. The sculptor could have included the two women right
into his reclining figure......But, you did it for him!

Hello

Good !

Before buying the Leica I thought going digital or going
Leica M, and I choose the M7.

Leica is a very expensive film camera.

Now, film or digital, but expensive.

I sometimes use a Canonet QL 17, which
is called the "poor man's Leica". It is very discreet and
lightweight. The only downside is not having a bayonet lens. But it

The QL17 is a very fine camera ! A friend of mine bought one
after talking with me about this kind of gear
