okay a bit distorted, but looks like a scene from a tarantino movie to me somehow... a well presented moment ben, chilled out indeed...

I just been gossiping in your profile, i really like the natural spotted moments in the streets that you are able to catch.

I just enjoy with all them, mainly Portugal and India. Nice work

hi ben,

i can't help feeling that you missed an opportunity here... i think we've seen dozens of photos taken in pubs/bars/etc where a photog set up the fg with his own "watering" set...
the place looks kinda boring but it does not disturb me... why you did not invite someone to your table for one or two, had a chat and - in this way - a natural FG arrangements?...

distortion - does not bother me, here, on the contrary - it adds some dramatic feeling to this scene... in general - i like ultra-wide stuff...

(nikkor 17-35mm, is it the same which i had to sell due to that "DX" letters on the ring?...:-))

best, j.
