I wasn't conscious of the kind of composition you describe; perhaps I am enjoying playing with the possibilities 28mm lens, which enables me to have someone very close and other in the medium plane. As I assembled this collection I became aware of a theme: a sort of post-bomb tension in the city that even lovers can't fully escape from.

Lots of life in these. I think my favorites are the ones in which you seem to be trying to capture positional relationships between three strangers distributed across the frame. I think this could make a nice theme for an exhibit. Of the triplets you've shown here, my favorites were: http://staff.bath.ac.uk/bssjrb/Photographic/dozen/07.htm http://staff.bath.ac.uk/bssjrb/Photographic/dozen/12.htm Also, I keep coming back to this one...it's a very strange moment: http://staff.bath.ac.uk/bssjrb/Photographic/dozen/02.htm From their expressions I'd guess she's upset about something and he's trying to figure out how to comfort her. But, instead, he seems to be feeling her up. Intriguing. Thanks for sharing these, Aaron >http://staff.bath.ac.uk/bssjrb/Photographic/dozen/dozen.htm _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
