Photographer’s Note

Confused ladies on the streets of London.

Two ladies, trying to work out where they're supposed to be going - they had been having an argument about which direction they needed to head in, when the red-skirted lady suddenly decided she'd had enough and walked off down the road.

Hi Ben,
Funny street scene. The respective expressions of the ladies really fit the story of your note. The diagonal at the top adds some perspective. Light is a bit harsh but still....the overall quality is good. This D300 really seem to deliver.

Yours,

Philippe

Hi Ben - really humorous, especially after the explanation in your note... the expressions say it all, both of them, giving the interaction, we can imagine the devlopment of this situation... attractive colors of their clothes... regards, Daniel

London is a VERY big city - and I get confused myself sometimes so I kind of know how she feels. Love the garish colours and the grim determination on the ladies face. Nice perspective & just the slightest hint of a tilt to add to the feeling of anxiety.

Good job, Roberto

LOL! Great situation to be recorded. Actually, it's interesting
when you come across a situation like that and capture
the 'aftermath' - the result here is rather comic as I
can't but observe the way the closest of them two ladies
is dressed. Not to mention her ridiculous shoes.
Love the high contrast and colours,
Robi

They are wearing mens blazers with floral print skirts, of course they're confused. Interesting take on our behavior in public.
I gotta say that that lens with the D300 makes some stunning photographs. Love it Ben.

Take it easy,
Brian
