Strike a pose Photo

Photographer’s Note

Always fun Harajuku, like this scene, the photographer ask the girl to pose for him. The result was funny; she looked a bit robot like in her pose.
It helps quite a bit if you speak Japanese or they speak English. I don't want to know how much effort it will take for me to get the same result.
I had a fixed length on my camera and I couldn't step back to get the whole scene well....

Thank you for watching.

Nice one, Hans, I think you did very well indeed. Yuo might have gone further in yuor note and mentioned that the poseur with the foppish hat looks pretty robotic himself - they are both caught in an eternal dance of their own understanding.
Nice bokeh from that 85L.
Cool stuff,
Francis

Hi Hans!
Very nice! Her outfit and facial expression, both go very well with the robot image that your shot suggests. Quite a funny snapshot.

Oh yes, i had miss this one!
It's really good, well seen and composed, and soo funny!
I only regret the right hand of the lady beeing cut, and the white parts a bit overexposed (the hat).

Hi Hans,
I like the way you caught the posture of these two people which look like automatons with nice blurred effect in BG.
All the best,
Marilyn
