Again, many great pics but there can only be one. Why did I pick this photo? Two reason, one being that the photographer was in the right place at the right time. But more importantly the pic was treated in such a way as to date it in a way that tied everything together. The sepia tone in conjunction with the vignette added both balance and power to the subject. If anything negative can be said it must be the trainers worn by the person on the right and the ladies watch - but these are beyond the the photographers control. A hearty well done to Zafra52  Chris

You know, I can't help wishing they were walking towards the camera. Still great capture & PP.
