Nice. I would have thought they were waiting for haircuts at the barber, but by the looks of the scene it might not be. Fantastic moment, the fellows have some relaxation. It now just occurred to me this has got to be Barnes & Noble!
Lately I've been leaning towards HP5+, because of it's grain and contrast. I really enjoy playing with it a lot.

Take care,
Brian

Hi Animesh,
A great scene without them knowing you are there. I love their expressions of absolute concentration as they are reading, and nicely composed with the books in the foreground to frame them. Also love the reflection in the window behind them.
Regards
Wanda

Phenomenal one, Animesh. Luminous and silky. (Is this from the Coolscan V?) I would have called it "Interiors." Best, -Hugh

Jeeze that new Asph. lens of yours is designed for holographs (and just think the Summilux version is supposed to carve even more details) ! Your pic is almost three dimensional. Love that funnel of light where the readers are aligned.
Urban moments at their best.

It´s your typical style: a silent poetry of every day´s life.
I love it.
Best

Nice catch, Animesh. Each man reads on his own while waiting for--what, the barber? If they were women, they'd probably being talking to each other. A very everyday scene, but one that says something about human character, or maybe just male character. Regards, Ken.
