Wspaniale...
Oni, ty z tylu, i ten tlumek, ktory na nich i na ciebie patrzy...
Close your eyes and I... ;))))
Buzka za buzka buzke pogania...
Ide spac. Grazka.

Ah! Kissing in Machu Picchu! What's better than that? (!) Nothing!
Oh... Yes! I know! Kissing in Rome! :-)))))
I was not aware of an International Kissing Day. Why not every day? ;-)
I remember that photo. I still get the feel that they are well aware of you, but I might be wrong. Love the look of the "spectators" in the background. Brings another dimension.
Kiss!
Claire

Hello George,

International kissing day! And I manage to be on my own in a Muslim country... Well, I think I need to postpone the celebrations to a later date then! ;-)

It's an awful photograph off course and a terrible Adidas commercial, but you get a monkey for the use of film hahaha.

Cheers, Dennis

hi G

I cannot hardly believe any sane photographer going to a place like Machu Picchu and find kissers but after seeing this photo and reading your note [I have to believe you, no?], I learn a new thing about this place, because so far I have not seen TL photos telling me this new info.

And you did very well to present your story, in a artistic way and most effective manner a photographer can do.

I like it.

Although kissing is not a norm in Asian values and certainly not in Malaysia, I personally am not in favor of public display of it under certain kind of conditions like a shopping crowd or swim pool but I will certainly understand it at a place of departure like airport, train station, boat terminal where people in love or sentiments leave one another and show such emotions.

From your photo, I am not sure if this is one such condition, G because you did not show much backdrop to find out, but as I always believe a note is very useful you did tell me about the bus stop to fit under the condition I mentioned above.

So that makes this a fine capture and you know well how to present it.

The film is just what is should be, a film quality and I appreciate it more because shooting films meant we could not waste too much and reshoot like digital, and you have to be good at the 1st few times :)

And Peru, a place on my list. This is one of your photos that I like pick and like. And I give it a green.

Bravo.
tfs, bill
