Couple in Contrast

Spotted these two today…thought she had a lovely smile and her oriental complexion was a great contrast with his white hair.

And here’s one for my friend in New York state…

Great shot Ray, really like the DOF isolating the subjects from the background.

Ray, how'd you elicit that smile? Everytime I take a shot of someone who catches me, I get glares or creeped-out looks. I guess that comes from living in Orange County!

Guest 01-May-2005 22:21
Aww, what a sweet couple! Great focussing Ray!

Guest 01-May-2005 22:04
What a lovely natural smile

Guest 01-May-2005 01:57

Excellent street portrait! Bravo Ray.

Guest 30-Apr-2005 22:32
His hair matches her shirt :)

Excellent candid. Beautiful colours and contrast and nice expression of the couple.

I wonder if he dyed his hair that color to create such a contrast.
These are surprisingly romantic and bright images for you Ray. Nice change of pace.

I dont think he's happy about it though heheh

Yes they do seem to contrast each other. She is obviously happy to have her photograph taken though.
