Fantastic capture !

Every lady should have such a protector lol great capture here of her.

The tire is no longer for transportation, but a perfect height for a footstool to complete the concentration of the moment.

Perfect framing and composition, bravo!

a lovely sense of peace

Fantastic capture of a well-guarded private moment.

A lovely capture!!

A very lovely capture, Nikolay. :)

nice capture of her with special color tones! you did well not to disturb otherwise she would send the sms to a wrong person! ;o) Hey, old friend, you are still here, so good to see your work again ;o)

You have caught her in a happy moment maybe. A very summery image.

Superb capture my friend. God bless.

Certainly protected in more ways than one! Unapproachable, unavailable, and disinterested in the outside world. Sounds like a lovely way to spend an afternoon to me! :)

Tara, I was also hooked by her carefree way. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Beautiful capture! Color and light are excellent , and the scene is really beautiful.

Great candid photo! She is busy texting, so you could have done just about anything.

A great capture, Nikolay. It is so peaceful. Hugs fore all day. Di. xx

Thanks much, Di! Hope you're doing fine.

Thanks much, Di! Hope you're doing fine.

Well seen, and a great candid shot!

very good shot

The uniqueness of the moments! Excellent!

wonderful image, would look great in black and white as well. I have a Lumix camera too that I use for the times I don't want to drag too much equiptment and I love it.

she is writing on cell phone to her best friend - what else? one pic, one look, one solution. jst great candid picture!

Thanks a lot for your kind comments.

Bodyguard on duty... Nice shot. Aloha

Protected by her dog, but also by the lush greenery, and (ala tara) by her own self immersion. She seems raised up, as if that carpet of grasses held her aloft. And great capture of her dog half-buried in all that growth. And her with her foot on a tire---and on a bench surrounded by nothing but growth! The vision is wonderful, with your usual intuitive juxtapositions that defy explanation but feel wholly at home inside your images; and your hues are subdued and quiet, as in a dream. Also, you let a little light shine on her hair, which is one of the highlights of the piece. More beautiful work from you, always looking to inner worlds inside the outer ones. And I don't know if I've said this before, but you remind me in several instances of the images in the films of Andrei Tarkovsky, esp the way he juxtaposes natural scenes with people, sometimes quite fancifully; and with his tones and feelings of high reality inside the patina of deep dreaming...your next image (connection) could be from "Stalker," as this could be, in its muted tones and overgrown field...Or Nostalgia, etc...
