Not My Type
First image in this forum.
I was walking in a nearby village with my grandson. He was lagging behind. I turned around to find out why and caught him scratching his head over the big clunky "keyboards" in the shop window.
C&C appreciated. Thanks for looking.

Jodo,
I'm not a techno freak, so my comments about processing, etc. are of no great value.
But I am a street shooter, and I thoroughly love every single aspect of this fantastic photograph!
Congratulations on a remarkable capture.
Charlie

Charlie, thank you. I'm glad you like it. And I'm sure you are being way too modest about your skills.

I'm not a lot of help on conversion crits. No matter. I'm all about the feel of shots. This shot has a great feel.

jodo,

grab shots can be so tricky sometimes, i know i always look at mind afterwards and think if only I had ........

this is great though, as tim said, its all about feel and emotion and this has it in bucket loads, made me laugh when i saw it.

I can easily image what he's thinking.

Cheers and welcome to the forum

Martyn, The exciting thing, as you know, about grabbing a shot is getting back to the workstation and finding out you actually have what you tried to grab.
Glad you like the shot.

Yea, me too. I can only imagine what his grandson will be comparing the current keyboards and phones to 60 years from now. Actually I can't imagine it at all. I just know it would surprise me.
Thanks. Oosty.

Nice shot, I was looking at the shirt thinking 'what are the Wiggles?' but then again, I learned how to type on one of those machines when it was new...
