"Friends", St. Mary's Square, SF Chinatown, Nikon F4, Ektachrome
Two friends engrossed in their private conversation in the late afternoon.
This shot and the previous Carmel Mission picture were from a test roll of the new Ektachrome E100GX slide film. It's the replacement film for the E100SW that I used before. I like it.

Well, since this pic didn't rate a comment so far. I have a question for you all. :)
Did this composition work for you?
The circumstance is that I was sitting on a bench in the late afternoon across from these two women who were deeply engrossed in their private conversation. I was able to be unobtrusive because I had my 85mm mounted. From my position, I was able to frame the shot to include the trees.
Is it interesting, or just...blah, boring.

Warren - I see what you were getting at... and I appreciate it...but it just doesn't do anything for me.
Maybe closer up, or highly cropped?
Thanks for the comment. As this is an area of photography that I'm not very familiar with, I NEED and CRAVE feedback on these types of shots. I don't get to practice street shooting very often, but it's fun when I do, and it would be great to become decent at it someday.
Thinking about this picture more, perhaps all that foliage takes the focus and attention away from my main subject. I think when I have a minute, I'll try for a highly cropped version to see if that works better.
