Another so beautiful image. Great composition and tones it is fantastic!!!

I utterly adore this one.. probably among my 5 most favorite compositions of yours. Timeless, tranquil, unconditional respect between two fascinating humans; their own little corner of their own little world. Would love to hear their stories and also want to ask what is in the sack. Bravo, my friend! Hope your day is as wonderful as you make so many of ours. Kindest regards.... ~K~

Another fantastic shot, Antonis. I do envy that talent of yours!
Cindy 12-Mar-2005 01:07
I like how natural they look and how they are not focusing on you the photographer at all, very well done.

Just saw this one...excellent B&W as usual,Antonis. You're so good at capturing expressions. I see you have a Leica R7. How do you like it?
Vinh Luu 11-Mar-2005 18:16
this is an excellent shot Antonis!!!!

the woman on the left has a serious expression and sits beside a closed door, representing a closed off mood. the other woman has a more light-hearted expression and sits besides and open walkway, representing a welcoming mood. the two are facing in perpendicular directions, showing a kind of comparative contrast. i love it! lots to see and like here!

In the tradition of Bresson. Superb shot, Antonis.

I love this -- I think they've been friends for many years. Just comfortable companionship.

Wow great shot Antonis! Where you live in such a beautiful location
Susanne 10-Mar-2005 23:31
Thank you so very much! Just came back from doing my finals and then you surprised me with this dedication. I love this very much. I like the lighter tones, though I love your darker ones as well. I guess I just really like that it is a bit different from others, allowing this photograph to stand out. I like the shot of the women and how their dark garments reflect against the light. Of course, I vote for this one :)
