The Three Pigeons.....

The Three Pigeons.....
I'm always on the look out for an interesting or humorous candid shot................and I just couldn't resist this scene which I spotted in Guildford town centre recently.

I had to wait for a gap in the people walking past the pub..........and also hope that no one else came and sat down.

Ha ha, I can always rely on you for a good laugh Keith! They are sitting ducks for your humour, which I love! Fabulous shot and I love the windows with their inviting lights!

Happy Sunday.

Ha,ha.........I was quite close to them so I had to use Jackie as a decoy. Anyone looking over would have thought I was taking a photo of her, when in fact I was shooting just past her shoulder!

Glad you like it Rosa!

Je viens de découvrir que le mot "pigeon" était "Franglais". A part cette découverte je trouve cette photo superbe (Je te suspecte toujours Keith, de faire poser des mannequins avec des couleurs de vêtements étudiées à l'avance) Les trois couleurs primaires réunies avec les polos des personnes et les lettres de l'enseigne, c'est super. J'aimerais beaucoup aller à Guilford goûter la cuisine de ce restaurant. Amicalement. Jean Paul

Thanks for your comprehensive comments Jean Paul. I'm pleased you like this one.

No models though (honestly).............this one was just a case of being in the right place at the right time (and the fact I rarely go anywhere without a camera)!
