Modern Love Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

This old couple was holding hands - showing their affection the timeless way. I was walking behind them on a bright, hot day in Kunming, and I snapped this shot from about chest high. Luckily I caught their hands in the center of my photo, in focus. I like this one because I think it shows real emotion.

Nice presentation.

Hi Josh, a well timed and framed tender moment captured here with a load of well rendered meaningful cultural detail to spice it up . The placemnet of the shadows work well too. An appeling captured, allthough I was a bit distratcted by the eponymous David Bowie song that began to play in my head,
but this is just me ;-)
Good work!
Have a fine start of the week,
Bert
