Older couple talking in front of QVB

A photograph of an older couple standing in front of the Queen Victoria building and talking about something behind them as the man’s pointing hand may indicate. I took this photograph because of their relation to the direction he was pointing to.

Having a break from work, catching up with friends and sadly smoking.

I am very passionate about photography in general and particular in people photographs. I will on average see 10 to 30 Internet blogs dedicated to photography a day. View what other photographers capture or create. See if I can learn some new technique or pick up what makes me like a photograph and how I can apply it to my skill set.
