Gr8 image! Suggestive, naughty and slightly S&M...it reminds me of some famous BDSM photographers' work (the artistic ones, of course;)) The shoes are to die for, and the man's glance is humorous. The street is a bit oe, but I like the idea a lot.

Hi George
What a beautiful shot. Excellent black and white. It is very silky. You did a good job on the conversion. It is a sensual capture. Lots of feeling and emotion in it.

Hello dear George,
oh i love this composition, great position of d 2 "models".Good sense of humour.and i love d shoes :)
A masterpiece in street photography.
Thank you George for sharing with us!
Best wishes,
Linda

As you see, you don't always need to present talking faces. Talking (singing) legs, these are the singing legs that drive me hot!!!
The rest of the image....
A Gina Lollobrigida?
An Anita Ekberg?
A Marylin Monroe?
A Sophia Loren?

All old fashioned divas could be. Who knows...

And the lady, posed perfectly for the good, old, harmless George.

You should prove that you are a harmless guy, in order to convince her for that pose. Am i wrong? She would never give me such a pose, i guess... >:D

Hi George,
Excellent POV, great sharpness,
nice bokeh...(not so nice, the man, and not so interesting, for sure)
But are you really "completely harmless" ;o)
Cheers
Marc

that toe coming out of those kinky stockings doesnt look any sexy to me although i like feet... the pov is good of course but could be better if you had moved the lens to left a bit!>:PPP...

cheers george...

That's the nicest chain-link fence I've ever seen! Where can I get one of those? Or two, preferably. Do they sell them at Home Depot?

That guy looks as though he's avoiding her. She must be dangerous. She's definitely dangerous. Look at how she's set the sky ablaze.

Your eyes, man! Your eyes!

Keep walking, George. Just keep walking and don't look back.

Best, -Hugh

Hi George,

That surely is one interesting point of view!
The toe sticking out. A metaphor for something?
Or perhaps just cheap panties and a toe sticking out....


Greetings! Dennis

Obviously her mother never told her about the benefits obtained by wearing comfortable shoes. The perfect POV George, and I love all the converging lines disappearing between her feet. And as for the hole in the stockings - clear evidence that there is a God!

Warm regards, Roberto

I have to give you a big green smiley for capturing this one. :-)))))))) Looks great in B&W.

Hi george: A great detail! and a really cheeky shot. The context, which suggest a drab urban street is just right for a sense of drama. One drab man in the middle distance, one sexy pair of heals and so many senarios are suggested. Regards kevin

I like that the subject as great contrast and the background little contrast. It gives really a powerful impact. Did you acheive that effect in photoshop or only with your setting and devellopement? I have no choice to put this in my favorites.
