Hi colleagues,
Thanks for your comments.

@Poliu, it was not a quick shot. The lady spent a long time in such a way. At first I didn't think on shooting, but she was in front of me and my cam inside the bag, so I took it out and did a single shot. A way of practicing the candid shooting.

@all
Not an artistic picture, I'm afraid. But served me to overcome my natural shyness in these situations. And to document the fact. I intendrd to be respectful (there are no clues on who was her).
By publishing it I just ask your opinion on the aethics and usefulness of these kind of shots.
I've published it also in the spanish Pentax forum, and I've received quickly radical answers.
I'm afraid there is an important lack of humor sense and intrascendence feelings in our society.


Nice arse![/u]

I feel it has been received fairly well here... Wink
Yo don't know how much worse was at the spanish Pentax Forum Sad
She was stanidng there for a long time in that way. At first I didn't thought in shooting her, but at the end I thought it could be a funny pic to share, being clear she was not identifyable.
Not everybody thought the same Sad


I don't mean a photography forum, I mean...an erm... more erm... specialist forum. Wink Wink Wink

...are people still scared / worried / threatened by homosexuality?

I thought those concerned were surely just left to conservative backward middle eastern religions by now?

We don't have a culture over here where people are allowed to be comfortable with their bodies / self. The self is really seen as a constant work in progress. We all trip over ourselves apologizing to each other. So when I see shots from a humble post office around the world, where someone is bold and comfortable enough to wear what they want. Well It's brilliant it is Smile

Nobody care about them , people mostly care about their promotion and honestly not really nice to see walking man in handshake , kiss etc . Even if I saw it many times in my life I still not like to see it, we have many on streets, so I know people not care about much , other ways they have no visible presents. I don't think somebody is more modern who can ignore it or like or accept it.

My wife got literally scared once when she were reading something in a quiet bookshoop, when suddenly the whole area got filled with noise and weirdos. It turned out that she got in the path of Berlin gay parade... Rolling Eyes

Yes, we have once a year also, "saint festival" all over at our holly places, to irritate people much as they can. This is what I found to not acceptable other ways I really not care.

Sadly yes, we know what did happen with Romans and what did come after, nothing good.
