Black & White Photography Contest ~ Week 10

Smile for the camera!

I was shooting from the Johnson St. bridge as water taxis, kayaks and rowboats streamed underneath. I spotted this couple when they were still a long ways out and the woman started waving. My wife and I both waved back. Perhaps she thought she knew us? Finally, just as the boat disappeared into the shadow of the bridge I clicked this shot.

Olympus E-M1 Mk2, 1/2000s f/5.6 ISO200 42mm (35mm eq:84mm)

There was very little colour in the photo anyway, so I thought this would make a nice entry for the Black & White Photo Contest by @axeman. Just for fun, I'll show you the original shot...

Photos taken by me, @keithboone, in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, Sept. 3rd, 2019. Thanks very much for visiting!

Doesn't she have a nice smile? That woman was so animated. She waved and waved. Must have thought she knew us. Here's the first shot I took... see how far away she was? She waved until they went under the bridge...
