Lens: Nikon MF 50mm f/1.4

 Shot this 'fast and furious' on the last day.
For the life of me I could not find anything in the hills of beautiful Palos Verdes,
which oddly enough is normally, and at that time,
extremely quiet and shut in.
That's why I drove out there,
anticipating that it might translate, somehow into my shots.
But nope...just beauty, no isolation feel, at all.
Then I saw them!
They would not let go of each the whole time.
So I let them know that I will take pictures
and they just kept holding on to each other.
The feeling I got is that a proposal might happen anytime.
But not quite, yet.
Thus the sign that basically says:
the way of the mountain or the way of the sun. Hmmm...

What's going on with that?!

I like the image.

It seems so lonely to me... even though they're together.

Congrats on your TT!


Who knows?!
I can't figure this place out.
But it makes me want to shoot (not literally...:D)
and create like no other place online, so far.
Maybe it's the intimacy and closeness,
or just raw emotion.
Who knows!
Also what a good critic you are.
Not just because it is positive, but also poignant,
which makes it interactive and therefor very helpful.
Nothing like true connection.
Thanks Lydia. <3
