Perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself but this too shall pass and we can resume our normal lives and hopefully we may have learned that life is very precious and the many things we take for granted will assume new importance. Please stay safe. BTW, this stupendous garden always full of visitors is now closed to the public.
Greetings, this blog is dedicated to my life in photography and my passion for good Italian food.. I want to make this a place to stop and relax. In the hope that this will provide some respite and peace. Thank you for visiting.

The public photo
Here we have a couple in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. It always amuses me when a man takes the photo of a woman in front of flowers because the background becomes the main attraction and not the person. This brings us to another type of people picture and that is the one in a public place where there really are no rules. The concept of the decisive moment applies here. You see the shot and take it. A smile at the subject and some conversation will usually make it OK and you have the shot without hassles or the feeling that you somehow stole it.
