Default Beautiful Women and a Lucky Bokeh!



Yesterday, there was this car show at a place called Southside Johnny's near downtown Colorado Springs. I went there and photoed the dickens out of the place, but this photo makes me smile the biggest. The young lady in the foreground let me take a quick snap, and just as I hit the shutter, her friend leaned in to give her a kiss. The result, a much more interesting photograph

Sometimes, it's better to be lucky than good!

This is a great shot! Love how the girl in back is blurred but still a main part of the picture. Like how the red really stands out against her blonde hair.

That is a very nice shot. You caught the essence of the scene just perfectly.

Really interesting shot, and you're right, it just wouldn't be the same without the girl in the background.

It would have been bland had it not for the girl in the background. Sometimes luck is necessary in everything. Photography is no different.
