Two Guys on a Dock

Posted by Viewfinder (Bradenton, FL, United States) on 26 September 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

These two guys were on the same dock, in the same line as me, waiting for the ferry to take us back to the Cape from Martha's Vineyard. It was fun to watch the guy in black trying his best to get the guy in the foreground to talk. Interacting, they kind of reminded me of the old WB cartoon characters, "Pinky and the Brain."

Great candid, I love both foreground and background, throwing the second with the bokeh is sensational :)

Very intruiging image, it's like the guy in the background has asked a serious question and the guy in the foregound contemplates the answer. Beautifully framed and very thought provoking! Hugs to beautiful Bella, God keep her well!

Nice DoF and a cool view of a common sight. I wish I could see a bit more of the guy in the foreground, but the DoF is really brilliant....

I like the way you focused on the man in white.He looked like he was telling the man in black,'Just give me some quiet'..ha.

@tyan: Exactly. Hahaha! That's the Pinky and the Brain connection. Glad you see it, tyan.

I am really loving your "people" shots, something that I am not always comfortable in doing. Another great shot and story VF.

Excellent DoF, creating an intriguing scene. Even if you didn't explain, it's possible to understand that the guy in the background is trying to speak or understand the one in the foreground. Very well done!
